CLINICAL TOOLS
OT Sparks clinical tools are designed to support occupational therapists with practical reasoning, decision-making, workload reflection and recommendation planning.
These resources are intended to support professional reflection and clinical reasoning. They can be used individually, in supervision, in peer discussion or as part of team learning.
They do not replace professional judgement, formal supervision or service-specific policies, but they can help create structure around complex decisions and busy clinical work.
