Canadian Model of Occupational Performance

The Canadian Model of Occupational Performance (CMOP) is a framework used by occupational therapists to understand and enhance a person's ability to perform daily activities. It emphasizes the interaction between the person, their environment, and their occupations (daily tasks and roles). The model highlights that successful performance depends on a balance of personal factors (like skills and motivation), environmental factors (such as support or barriers), and the activity itself. By considering these elements, therapists can develop personalized strategies to help individuals achieve meaningful participation in everyday life.
