Canadian Occupational Performance Measure

The Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM) is a tool used by healthcare professionals to assess an individual's ability to perform daily activities that are important to them. It helps identify areas where someone may be experiencing difficulties, such as self-care, productivity, or leisure activities. Through guided interviews, individuals rate their satisfaction and performance in these areas, allowing practitioners to tailor interventions and track progress over time. The COPM emphasizes the person’s perspective, ensuring that care is focused on what matters most to them in their daily life.
