Abstract

This study aimed to identify commonly used standardized cognitive screens and functional performance assessments among occupational therapy practitioners at level 1 trauma centers in the USA. A survey completed by 269 occupational therapy practitioners revealed the most common cognitive screens and the association between cognitive tool training and standardized cognitive tool implementation. Implications for practice are discussed with suggestions for improving occupational therapy practice.
