Our Occupational Therapy Framework – <\/strong>\u201cThe PEOP model recognises that optimal participation occurs when the person, their environment, and meaningful occupations are aligned.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our occupational therapy services are guided by the Person\u2013Environment\u2013Occupation\u2013Performance (PEOP) model <\/strong>(Christiansen & Baum).<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The model is an evidence-based framework that recognises participation as the outcome of the dynamic interaction between individuals, their environments, and meaningful occupations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We work collaboratively to identify strengths, reduce barriers, and implement practical strategies that enhance functional performance, independence, and quality of life. Our approach is person-centred, strengths-based, and aligned with NDIS principles, supporting individuals to engage fully in everyday activities that matter to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Framework Overview<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The PEOP model<\/strong> guides our occupational therapy practice by focusing on how people engage in meaningful activities within their everyday environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Person<\/strong>
We consider physical, cognitive, emotional, sensory, and psychosocial strengths and challenges, as well as values, goals, and lived experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Environment<\/strong>
We assess physical, social, cultural, institutional, and policy environments that support or limit participation (e.g. home setup, support networks, community access).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Occupation<\/strong>
We focus on meaningful daily activities such as self-care, productivity, leisure, community participation, and roles across the lifespan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Performance & Participation<\/strong>
Intervention aims to enhance functional performance, independence, safety, and participation in everyday life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How does this framework support our OT Practice<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Person-centred and goal-driven<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Evidence-based and strengths-focused<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Functional and participation-oriented<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Responsive to environmental and systemic barriers<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Aligned with NDIS functional domains<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    To complement the PEOP model, our practice integrates:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Model of Human Occupation (MOHO)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Focuses on motivation (volition), habits\/routines (habituation), and skills<\/strong>, supporting sustainable engagement in daily life.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Trauma-Informed & Neurodiversity-Affirming Practice – <\/strong>Ensures safety, choice, collaboration, and respect for individual differences, particularly for people with disability and complex needs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Occupational Adaptation – <\/strong>Supports individuals to adapt tasks, environments, or strategies to improve participation and role competence.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
