Abstract
The nature of Quality Assurance is outlined, as well as the range of activities encompassed in a Quality Assurance program. The need to provide occupational therapy personnel with an organizational framework within which to develop the skills to implement a Quality Assurance program is given as the rationale for utilizing a model that focuses on five key areas of professional practice. The model is described, and the way it has facilitated the Quality Assurance program in the Occupational Therapy Services Department of the University Hospital, London, Ontario is discussed. Reference material, useful when implementing a program, is included.
