For occupational therapy students with disabilities, making the transition from the classroom to clinical fieldwork presents an interesting challenge to clinical fieldwork supervisors and academic fieldwork advisors. The Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) and other laws have changed the rules by requiring fieldwork sites and academic programs to make accommodations for students with disabilities. Occupational therapy's basic philosophy combined with the occupational therapist's training in task analysis, functional limitations of disabilities, modification of the environment and clinical reasoning skills, places the occupational therapist in a natural position to make these reasonable accommodations. The author presents the DIALOGUE system, a method of communication designed to make a smooth transition to ADA compliance in the fieldwork arena.
对于身患残疾的职业治疗专业学生而言，从课堂过渡到临床实习对临床实习督导和学术实习顾问构成了一项有趣的挑战。《美国残疾人法案》（ADA）及其他法律已改变规则，要求实习场所和学术项目为残疾学生提供便利。职业治疗的基本理念，再加上职业治疗师在任务分析、残疾功能限制、环境改造及临床推理技能方面的培训，使职业治疗师自然而然地处于能够做出这些合理便利安排的位置。作者介绍了DIALOGUE系统，这是一种旨在使在实习领域顺利过渡到符合ADA要求的沟通方法。
