In this one hour episode of the OT Potential podcast, you will be introduced to the Kawa model and how it can be used to foster collaboration for a rehab team.  The Kawa Model uses the metaphor of a river to depict one’s life journey. In this mental model, occupational therapists enable, restore, and/or maximize their client’s life flow. The model can be used with individual clients and groups. And, we’ll begin our episode by looking at research that explores how an acute care therapy team used the model to openly discuss and problem solve their team flow. We are incredibly honored to welcome on Dr. Michael Iwama, PhD, MSc, BScOT, a co-creator of the Kawa Model. Dr. Iwama will deepen our understanding of the Kawa Model, and we’ll discuss how the model and the specific research we are looking at can inspire your OT practice.In order to earn credit for this course, you must take the test within the OT Potential Club.You can find more details on this course here:https://otpotential.com/ceu-podcast-courses/kawa-otHere's the primary research we are discussing:Ober, J., &amp;; Lape, J.

#25: Collaboration and the Kawa Model with Michael Iwama (CE Course)

The aim of this episode was to create a grassroots resource about how the Kawa came to fruition as I strongly believe that in order to get the most out of the model, understanding its roots is imperative.
