The purpose of the study is to develop and validate Client-centered Occupational Therapy
      Service at Taipei City Psychiatric Center (OT@tcpc) service model to assist clinicians to
      provide and integrate comprehensive OT services.

Development and Validation of the Client Centered Occupational Therapy Service Model

Occupational Therapy

Psychiatric Rehabilitation

Occupational Therapy (OT) is one of the mental health services. The service phase includes
      acute/chronic hospitalization, daycare centers (adolescents, adults, and the elderly),
      community mental rehabilitation institutions, psychiatric nursing home, and outpatient
      assessment/treatments. OT provides holistic and continuous mental rehabilitation services at
      each stage of mental health care. During the acute hospitalization and based on the Model of
      Human Occupation (MOHO) model, the occupational therapist provides daily activities to assist
      acute patients with mental illness to develop occupation adaptation to enable and prepare for
      discharge.

      However, the lack of a client-centered OT service model limits the interpretation of the
      treatment effect and the process of change. This will seriously affect the integrity and
      continuity of OT services and will limit the development of OT professions. Thus, the purpose
      of the study is to develop and validate Client-centered Occupational Therapy Service at
      Taipei City Psychiatric Center (OT@tcpc) service model to assist clinicians to provide and
      integrate comprehensive OT services.

      This project consists of 2 stages. First, based on the MOHO model we use 5 stages with 6
      weeks program to develop the OT@tcpc service model. Second, validate the to indicate the
      occupation identity and competence to validate the OT@tcpc service model. We will recruit 70
      inpatients with schizophrenia and divided into intervention group, based on MOHO theory, and
      control group.

Occupational therapy based on the MOHO theory

Occupational therapy

The Occupational Performance History Interview-Second Version(OPHI-II) was tested before and after in the intervention group and the control group to explain the intervention effect of the MOHO theory-based treatment model.
OPHI-II is a semi-structured interview that gathers life history information. The OPHI-II contains 3 sub-domains: OPHI-II Occupational Identity(range 11~44)、OPHI-II Occupational Competence(range 9~36)、OPHI-II Occupational Behavior Settings(range 9~36).
The three sub-domains are divided into 4 levels, in which 4 points indicate good performance, 3 points indicate good functions, 2 points indicate lack of certain functions, and 1 points indicate poor functions. The total score of OPHI-II is equal to the sum of the three sub-domains (scores 29 to 116; higher scores indicate higher performance).

Except for Mini-Menlal State Examination(MMSE), all other tools were tested before and after in the intervention group and the control group to explain the intervention effect of the MOHO theory-based treatment model
The secondary outcome included the following instruments:
Mini-Menlal State Examination, MMSE(range 0~30；the higher scores indicate greater ability)
Canadian Occupational Performance Measure, COPM(performance and satisfaction, each range 1~10；the higher scores indicate greater performance)
Personal and Social Performance scale , PSP(range 1~100；the higher scores indicate greater performance)
Clinical Global Impressions Scale of Severity, CGIS(range 1~7；the lower scores indicate greater performance)
Comprehensive Occupational Therapy Evaluation Scale, COTES(range 20~100；the higher scores indicate greater performance)
Lawton Instrumental Activities Daily Living, LIADL(range 0~23；the higher scores indicate greater performance)

We will recruit 70 inpatients with schizophrenia and divided into intervention group and control group. The Intervention group provided Occupational therapy based on the MOHO theory, while the control group adopted the original Occupational therapy model.
The research at this stage is based on the theoretical framework of the MOHO model and the clinical practice of OTPF-3. Clinical experts are requested to assist in providing relevant suggestions as a reference for modifying intervention activities. Design OT@tcpc service model for occupational therapy intervention activities. The event design is based on the 4 systems of determinationl, habits, performance and environment, and 2 events are designed for each to be carried out in a group. Each activity includes 4 parts: warm-up, activity, feedback and homework. Each activity group will be explained separately so that the occupational therapist of the group can complete it under the guidance.

We will recruit 70 inpatients with schizophrenia and divided into intervention group and control group. The Intervention group provided Occupational therapy based on the MOHO theory, while the control group adopted the original Occupational therapy model.
This study was approved by the Institutional Review Board of Taipei City Hospital. After informed consent, the patients signed the consent form for this study and became the participant of this study.
Each activity group will be explained separately so that the participants of each group can complete it under the guidance. The group description includes: activity title, activity time (location), MOHO theory system, group purpose, activity content, equipment or materials, precautions, etc.
