Discuss the National Board of Certification of Occupational
Therapy (NBCOT) code of conduct. List the first five principles. -
Answer>> The Code of conduct is a document established by
the National Board of Certification of Occupational Therapy
(NBCOT) to define and explain the standards of personal and
professional conduct expected by OTs and required for licensing
and certification. It is expected that all occupational therapy
practitioners behave with moral and ethical standards. There are
nine principles in the code of conduct. Here are the first five:

1.) Certificants shall provide accurate, truthful, and timely
representations to NBCOT

2.) Certificants who are the subject of a qualifications and
compliance review shall cooperate with NBCOT concerning
investigations and requests for relevant information.

3.) Certificants shall be accurate, truthful, and complete in any
and all communications, direct or indirect, with any client,
employer, regulator agency, or other parties as they relate to their
professional work, education, professional credentials, research,
and contributions to the field of occupational therapy.

4.) Certificants shall comply with state and/or federal laws,
regulations, and statutes governing the practice of occupational
therapy.

5.) Certificants shall not have been convicted of a serious crime.

,Explain infection control and universal precaution procedures. -
Answer>> Infection control prevents or hinders the spread of
infections in healthcare settings. Infections happen when germs
get into the body, multiply, and cause an unwanted reaction.
Infections require a source. This can be a patient, healthcare
worker, or a family member. Germs and infections can come from
surfaces such as bed rails, medical equipment, countertops,
faucets and sinks and medical devices such as needles,
catheters, and intravenous lines. The germs are then transmitted
through contact, fluid sprays and splashes, inhalation, and sharps
injuries. Universal precautions are in place to attempt to reduce
the risk of transmission of bloodborne and other pathogens.
Standard precautions include hand hygiene as the most effective
way to prevent transmission, including washing and using
antimicrobial gel. Additionally, the use of personal protective
equipment (gloves, gowns, booties, masks, and eye protection)
are the first line of defense for a medical professional.

Discuss risk management techniques in healthcare. - Answer>>
Risk management is the ability to reduce financial liability and
exposure in preventing harm to patients and reducing medical
malpractice. Most facilities will have a risk management officer
that will help to find and improve areas of concern before a
sentinel event can occur. According to the Joint Commission, a
sentinel event is an "unanticipated event in a healthcare setting
resulting in death or serious physical or psychological injury to a
patient or patients, not related to the natural course of the
patient's illness." The best proactive approach is for risk
managers to perform risk assessments and identify areas and
potential for risks before an event can occur instead of needing to
react to an event in hindsight. Additionally, risk managers need to
instill a culture of " if you see something, say something." Staff
needs to be encouraged to report observed risks. Creating an
environment in which all staff take ownership in the safety and

, well-being of the facility will help prevent near misses and critical
events.

Discuss precautions for early mobilization in the critically ill and
intensive care unit (ICU) patients and what treatment may look
like. - Answer>> Early mobilization in the intensive care unit
(ICU) is currently an emerging area of research. This is a change
in the culture for the ICU, which is used to be one of letting a
patient rest in bed and keeping them as relaxed and immobile as
possible to facilitate healing and medical stability. The benefits of
early mobilization include reduced hospital acquired, improved
functional recovery within the hospital, improved mobility at facility
discharge, and reduced hospital length of stay. Early
mobilizations requires a multidisciplinary team approach with
frequent concurrent treatments with PT/OT and respiratory in
addition to nursing staff. Precautions will mainly be based on labs
being stable as well as stability with respiratory issues.
Additionally, having enough people present to assist the patient
and to manage lines including the ventilator is key. Most ICU
treatment will be bed-based, edge-of-bed, or simple transfers to a
chair at the bedside. Edge-of-bed activity can be any of the
following:

- trunk control activity (leaning and reaching outside of the base of
support and returning to the midline)
-seated ADLs (tooth brushing, face washing, combing hair,
cleaning glasses)
- vestibular training (change of gaze, weight shifting)
-joint compression
- ROM
- lung expansion/deep breathing activity
- cognitive activity
- endurance.
