This practical guide for occupational therapists introduces a tried and tested method for moving from assessment to intervention, by formulating plans and measurable goals using the influential Model of Human occupation (MOHO).

Section 1 introduces the concept of formulation - where it comes from, what it involves, why it is important, and how assessment information can be guided by theoretical frameworks and organised into a flowing narrative. Section 2 provides specific instructions for constructing occupational formulations using the Model of Human Occupation. In addition, a radically new way for creating aspirational goals is introduced - based on a simple acronym - which will enable occupational therapists to measure sustained changes rather than single actions. Section 3 presents 20 example occupational formulations and goals, from a wide range of mental health, physical health and learning disability settings, as well as a prison service, and services for homeless people and asylum seekers.

Designed for practising occupational therapists and occupational students, this is an essential introduction for all those who are looking for an effective way to formulate plans and goals based on the Model of Human Occupation.

Industry Reviews

"The book addresses the widely acknowledged challenge of bridging the theory to practice gap by demonstrating how to use occupation focused knowledge in practice: articulating why formulation is important and establishing it within a clear theoretical framework, before explaining in detail and demonstrating through examples how formulations are constructed. With clear language and short, readable chapters, the book is accessible and useful for busy therapists, and will appeal to students, novice, and experienced therapists alike...The unassuming title belies the power-packed content of this book. Reflecting the voices of authors and therapists, and with an emphasis on demonstrating occupational formulation through diverse examples as well as providing theoretical information and clear instructions, the book caters for different learning styles. Representing excellent value for money, it holds relevance for occupational therapists in any practice setting who are seeking a clear, practical guide for implementing occupational formulation to support collaborative, occupation-centered practice."
