The Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM)

The Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM) is a personalized tool used by healthcare professionals to identify and prioritize daily activities that are important to an individual’s life. It helps clients express their goals and concerns related to work, self-care, or leisure. Through interviews and scoring, the COPM tracks changes over time, providing a clear picture of progress and areas needing support. This approach ensures that therapy focuses on what truly matters to the person, enhancing motivation and effectiveness in improving their ability to perform meaningful activities.
