Level IIB at Pacific University is a twelve week, full-time (40hours/week) experience taken during the fall or
spring semesters of the third year. This experience is in settings which provide occupational therapy
services to people who are experiencing occupational dysfunction. Typical settings include medical and
psychiatric hospitals, outpatient clinics, community settings, skilled nursing facilities, schools, and early
intervention programs. Fieldwork may also take place in innovative and role emerging practice settings.
A seminar assists students to integrate previously learned didactic content. Experiences from Level IIB
Fieldwork using "real life" examples for application of key theoretical concepts bridge the classroom
concepts with practice and promote higher levels of critical reasoning. (Level II FW Overview, 2013)
