Evidence for MOHO in mental health

Developing Occ Therapy Indicative Care packages via payment for results

Using the MOHO assessment tools to deliver outcomes - Heasman and Morley. Occ Therapists are increasingly being asked to provide evidence and effectiveness. Article discusses why MOHO has been chosen as the blueprint for so many trusts and how it has proven to be successful. GREAT ARTICLE TO SOURCE FOR PRESENTATION

The use of MOHO assessments in CMHT - Smith & Mairs. Good article for rationale for MOHO, conclusion that inconsistency in application - linked to generic working and other factors such as training, confidence, management

A practice development programme to promote the use of MOHO - Melton et al. Found that MOHO use varied amongst participants. Mechanisms had been discovered as catalysits for change. Environmental context is important in affecting how well it is implmeneted. Interesting bit on stages of practice development outcome stages - In the hangar, on the runway, take off, in the air. This trust was on the runway

Implementing the MOHO across a mental health occupational therapy service. Wimpenny et al. Concluded that community of practice was key for effective implementation of MOHO in practice.

Reflections on using the Model of Human Occupation Screening Tool in a joint learning disability team - Increasing demands for evidence-based practice can cause dilemmas for practitioners, who are striving to identify assessments and outcome measures that are reliable in their practice setting, clinically useful and flexible. A 6-month preliminary study of the Model of Human Occupation Screening Tool (MOHOST) in a community learning disability service yielded positive results by satisfying all these requirements. The occupational therapists found that the MOHOST facilitated consistent and evidence-based practice, without compromising professional autonomy or a client-centred focus. It appeared straightforward, flexible to use and applicable in a wide range of learning disability settings.
