초록

목적 : 본 연구는 성인작업치료에서 아동작업치료로 전환한 작업치료사의 임상 경험을 이해하고 탐구함으로써 추후 전환한 작업치료사의 빠른 임상 적응을 위한 프로그램을 개발하는데 필요한 기초 자료를 제공하고자 한다. 연구방법 : 본 연구는 Colaizzi의 현상학적 연구 방법을 적용하였다. 임상경력 3년 이상으로 병원 기반 성인작업치료에서 감각통합 중심의 아동작업치료로 전환한 작업치료사 6명을 대상으로 전화 인터뷰를 실시하였다. 인터뷰 내용은 참여자의 동의하에 녹음 후 전사한 뒤 분석하였다. 결과 : 면담 내용을 분석한 결과 3개의 범주화, 7개 주제 모음, 17개의 의미가 도출되었다. 3개의 범주화에는 전환한 작업치료사의 임상경험의 어려움, 전환 후 임상경험을 통해 얻을 수 있었던 강점, 빠른 임상적응을 위해 전환을 준비하기 전 필요한 요소가 무엇인지 알 수 있었다. 결론 : 감각통합 중심의 아동작업치료로 전환한 작업치료사들이 새로운 환경에 전문가로서 빠른 임상 적응할 수 있도록 전환하는 작업치료사들을 위한 교육과 제도적 마련이 필요할 것이다.

Purpose : This study aimed to explore the clinical experiences of occupational therapists who have transitioned from adult to child occupational therapy to provide a basis for developing programs to facilitate rapid clinical adjustment for transitioning occupational therapists. Method : Telephone interviews and Colaizzi's phenomenological research method were employed. The interviewees were six occupational therapists with at least three years of clinical experience who had transitioned from hospital-based adult occupational therapy to sensory integration-focused children's occupational therapy. The interviews were recorded, transcribed, and analyzed with the participants' consent. Results : The analysis of the interview transcripts yielded 3 categories, 7 themes, and 17 meanings. The three categories were the challenges facing transitioning occupational therapists in clinical practice, the strengths gained from their post-transition clinical experiences, and the facilitators needed before the transition to ensure quick clinical adjustment. Conclusion : Training and institutional arrangements must be in place to ensure that adult occupational therapists transitioning to sensory integration-focused child occupational therapy can quickly adapt clinically and professionally to their new environments.
