If you haven't already, you should really check out the "Vision in Action" section of AOTA.org. There are some great articles about occupational therapy practitioners putting AOTA’s Centennial Vision into action every day.

Here is the newest Vision in Action article about Aging in Place:

One's home must be able to accommodate the natural changes and needs that come with getting older, and occupational therapy practitioners can assist individuals to adapt their environment to accommodate individual aging factors. Occupational therapy practitioners can meet the needs of an aging population by helping them age in place, stay healthy, and lead full lives. Read the full text here.
