Everyday Evidence: Serious Mental Illness with Dr. Liz Griffin Lannigan

We speak with the chairperson of AOTA’s Mental Health Special Interest Section about the OT Practice Guidelines for Adults Living with Serious Mental Illness and a recent AOTA member appreciation webinar titled “Applying Evidence for Best Practices in Mental Health Settings”. We cover OT's enlarging role in working with this population, best practices supported by evidence, and recommendations for your practice.
