You¿ll explore how the profession has developed over time, and dive into the philosophical and scientific foundations that guide how occupational therapists work. Through topics like occupational science and person-centred practice, you¿ll begin to understand what it means to see people as ¿occupational beings¿¿individuals whose health and wellbeing are deeply connected to the activities they do every day.
You¿ll get to know key models, theories, and practical tools that help therapists assess and support people¿s engagement in meaningful occupations.

Alongside the theory, you¿ll begin building your professional toolkit. You¿ll learn about forming therapeutic relationships, working in diverse settings, and developing cultural competence. The module also introduces the International Classification of Functioning (ICF) and encourages you to reflect on your learning through portfolio work. This module sets the stage for your journey into occupational therapy¿blending academic knowledge with practical insight to help you grow into a thoughtful, skilled practitioner.

Mae'r modiwl hwn yn archwilio sut y gall gwahanol ffactorau¿fel bioleg, seicoleg, amgylchiadau cymdeithasol, a'r amgylchedd¿effeithio ar allu person i gymryd rhan mewn gweithgareddau pob dydd, a elwir yn alwedigaethau. Byddwch chi'n dysgu sut y gall yr heriau hyn effeithio ar bobl ar draws pob cyfnod o fywyd, o enedigaeth i fod yn oedolyn h¿n, a sut y gall therapi galwedigaethol helpu i adfer cydbwysedd a chyfranogiad. Mae'r modiwl yn canolbwyntio ar ddeall achosion aflonyddwch galwedigaethol ac yn eich cyflwyno i'r offer, y technegau a'r meddwl y mae therapyddion yn eu defnyddio i gefnogi pobl i adennill neu addasu eu cyfranogiad mewn gweithgareddau ystyrlon.
Byddwch yn meithrin eich sgiliau mewn asesu a chynllunio, gan ddysgu sut i ddatrys problemau gan ddefnyddio dulliau sy'n seiliedig ar dystiolaeth a modelau therapi galwedigaethol. Mae'r rhain yn cynnwys fframweithiau, amrywiaeth o fodelau, a thechnegau ar gyfer graddio ac addasu tasgau i weddu i anghenion unigol. Byddwch hefyd yn archwilio sut i weithio mewn partneriaeth â defnyddwyr gwasanaeth, eu teuluoedd, a gweithwyr proffesiynol eraill¿gan gydnabod pwysigrwydd cydweithio, cyfathrebu, a chymhwysedd diwylliannol wrth ddarparu gofal effeithiol. Bydd pynciau fel diogelu, cydsyniad, cydraddoldeb a deddfwriaeth yn eich helpu i ddeall cyfrifoldebau a ffiniau moesegol ymarfer.
Drwy gydol y modiwl, byddwch yn myfyrio ar brofiadau yn y byd go iawn ac yn ystyried gofynion emosiynol gweithio mewn amgylcheddau dan bwysau. Byddwch yn trafod materion fel anghenion heb eu diwallu, dynameg p¿er, a sut i wneud addasiadau rhesymol yn ymarferol. Bydd dysgu¿n cael ei gyflwyno drwy ddarlithoedd, gweithdai, adnoddau ar-lein, a gweithgareddau sy¿n seiliedig ar ymholiadau, gyda mewnbwn gan bobl sydd wedi defnyddio gwasanaethau therapi galwedigaethol a gweithwyr proffesiynol sy¿n gweithio yn y maes. Efallai y bydd cyfleoedd hefyd ar gyfer dysgu rhyngbroffesiynol, gan roi golwg ehangach i chi ar sut mae gwahanol rolau'n dod at ei gilydd i gefnogi iechyd a lles pobl.
