Abstract EN
Background/Aims.
The process of occupational therapy services starts with assessing the occupational performance problems, setting goals, and implementing various intervention strategies to achieve the goals.
The aim of this study was to assess the extent of achieving occupational therapy goals for people with stroke and categorize the goals according to the aspects of the domain of occupational therapy.
Methods.
A cross-sectional retrospective study design was used.
People with stroke receiving rehabilitation services at King Abdulaziz Medical City (KAMC) were the target of this study.
Data about the extent of achieving occupational therapy goals were collected using the Goal Attainment Scaling (GAS).
Results.
Of the 100 medical records of people with stroke included in this study, only 30% of the goals were functional.
Only 54% of the goals were achieved.
No association was found between the number of achieved goals and variables such as age, gender, type of stroke, and stroke hemisphere/side.
Conclusion.
People with stroke included in this study have not shown significant progress toward achieving their therapy goals.
As for clinical practice, this study could guide therapists in the future to improve the process of achieving their patients’ goals.
