Occupational therapists value the principles of health and health care equity and often face challenges addressing inequities within the systems in which they work.
We present the Equity Lens for Occupational Therapy (ELOT), a framework to provide a practical starting point for reflecting on equity issues and the ways inequities are enacted in daily practice.
Building on an existing occupational therapy practice model and well-established program development and evaluation processes, we overlay an equity lens. The lens provides a structured way to critically reflect on occupational therapy programs within their contexts and develop action strategies to prevent or redress inequities.
Taking action on the multiple ways that inequities can be embedded in occupational therapy programs within health and social systems can be a daunting task. The ELOT provides a systematic way to stimulate critical reflection and dialogue, examine practice, focus social advocacy, and take action.
职业治疗师重视健康和医疗保健公平的原则，并且在其工作的系统中解决不公平问题时常常面临挑战。
我们提出职业治疗公平视角（ELOT），这是一个框架，为反思公平问题以及不公平在日常实践中的表现方式提供一个实用的起点。
在现有的职业治疗实践模型以及完善的项目开发与评估流程基础上，我们叠加一个公平视角。该视角提供了一种结构化的方式，以批判性地反思职业治疗项目在其背景下的情况，并制定行动策略以预防或纠正不公平现象。
针对不公平现象可能在健康和社会系统中的职业治疗项目中得以体现的多种方式采取行动可能是一项艰巨的任务。职业治疗公平视角提供了一种系统的方式来激发批判性反思和对话、审视实践、聚焦社会倡导并采取行动。
