Top Down Assessment: Prioritize one Occupation to observe the client perform
For the purposes of this observation, I would I would like to observe Albert preparing and
like to observe him preparing and eating a eating a frozen pizza (a food that 18-year-old
simple meal (frozen pizza). males tend to enjoy and likely know how to
prepare). This will likely take place in a
simulated apartment within the Early Psychosis
program, or if possible, it would be more
beneficial to observe within his home setting.
Assessment of Motor and Process Skills I would utilize AMPS to evaluate client’s
AMPS – ADL AND IADL performance performance in ADL and IADLs and considers
safety, overall effectiveness, and efficiency.
Although the RTI is also somewhat assessing
ADLs, the focus is on perception not on actual
abilities. Albert doesn’t appear to have deficits
in ADLs, but IADLs are important to look at and
evaluate performance.
