Let's Get 
Organized

The Intervention

 The Occupational Therapy: Let’s Get Organized time management program was designed and developed within the framework of the cognitive disability model.  The program aims to foster development of effective time management habits and use of cognitive adapters such as maintaining an appointment book, wearing a watch or using a cell phone, and using goal-directed trial and error learning strategies of cognitive rehabilitation.  The program was developed over several years of clinical interventions with individual clients and with small client groups.  Clients’ participation in 20 one-hour sessions over a 10-week period allows them to develop the understanding and habits needed to ensure that they can effectively implement time management practices in their daily lives.
