Level II Fieldwork, according to AOTA, is to "develop competent, entry-level, generalist occupational therapists. Level II fieldwork must be integral to the program’s curriculum design and must include an in-depth experience in delivering evidence based occupational therapy services to clients." (AOTA, n.d.)

Burbank Unified School District

For my first Level II fieldwork, I had the pleasure of being at George Washington Elementary School for 12 weeks.

The occupational therapist and I provided both direct and indirect services to groups and individual students. Many students had goals with handwriting and legibility, far and near-point copying, and typing. My experience at the school district challenged me to think fast, and creatively, and come up with back-up plans.

Occupational therapists focused on work simulation and work conditioning, where activity analysis and creativity helped prepare patients to return to work. In addition, the OTs offered hand therapy interventions, so I was able to garner experience with different interventions.
