This course engages students in study and discussion of service settings for emerging populations that are prospective recipients of Recreational Therapy (RT) services. It provides opportunities to apply past learning related to Standards of Practice to various service settings, to determine differences and similarities that may impact the way service is provided. Students will learn about scope of practice, coverage and reimbursement, risk management and the manner of implementing all phases of the Assessment, Planning, Implementation, Evaluation, and Documentation (APIED) process in several emerging service settings. Students will also explore private practice and waiver program options.
