The Occupational Therapy & Disability Studies Network

On this episode of INside the OUTcomes, we discuss the Occupational Therapy & Disability Studies Network, an academic and professional community created to integrate contributions from disability studies into occupational therapy education.

Our guests are two of the founding members of the network. Danbi Lee, PhD, OTD, OTR/L, is an associate professor of occupational therapy in the University of Washington department of rehabilitation medicine, as well as a core faculty member of the disability studies program. Alisa Sheth, PhD, OTR/L, is an assistant professor of occupational therapy at Pacific University in Oregon. 

Transcripts for this podcast are available.

* NOTE: In this episode, Tim Bower’s experience was described as an example of assisted suicide; however, it should be understood as the withdrawal of medical care based on the expressed wishes of the patient and family members.
