Frontier Behavioral Health (FBH) offers Level I fieldwork placements for students enrolled in entry-level occupational therapy (OT) and occupational therapy assistant (OTA) programs. This is often a student's first experience in a clinical setting, so the fieldwork experience is focused around three core elements: an introduction to FBH and community mental health as a setting for the practice of OT; activities that help students learn the application of their coursework in a practice setting; and exploration of the student's professional goals and aspirations. Level I fieldwork placements typically run 16 to 40 hours, depending on the requirements of the student's OT or OTA program. During this fieldwork placement, you may do the following: Observe evidence-based practice in OT sessions Learn about occupation-based assessments and interventions utilized in the behavioral and mental health setting Practice professional interaction with clients receiving OT services Shadow FBH staff in programs other than occupational therapy, including shadowing licensed clinicians in individual and group counseling sessions Engage in self-reflection on the experience as a first step in professional growth and career development.
