COVID Guideline Update & CCP Meet Ups

COVID Guideline Update

On June 14, the Alberta Government removed all mandatory public health restrictions. ACOT has reviewed the AB Government and AHS guidance and the messaging from our allied health and physician regulators. After this dedicated review and careful consideration of our public protection mandate, we have updated the Safe Delivery of OT Services During GOVID-19 guideline and the COVID-19 Pandemic FAQs to reflect the removal of all public health restrictions.

Key messages:

  • OTs are advised to continue to employ the necessary Infection, Prevention and Control measures based on your risk assessment and screening.
  • Continuous medical grade masking with clients or while in client care or educational settings remains strongly recommended.
  • Continue to adhere to employer/organizational policies and guidance when it exceeds what ACOT has outlined in the guidance document.

For ongoing guidance regularly review ACOT’s eNews and Practice Resources at www.acot.ca

Continuing Competence Spring & Summer Meet Ups

Do you need a refresher on why you must complete the CCP? Would you like guidance on what content you should include in each component of the CCP? Or how to add a Learning Activity Record? Would you like the opportunity to get quick and easy advice from ACOT staff while you login and add content to your own CCP? Or network with other OTs from across the province about how they approach selecting indicators or creating their learning plans for their practice area/setting?
