The Code sets out the rules of conduct which should be observed by registered persons in the provision of occupational therapy treatment and should be referred to regularly by registered persons and occupational therapy service providers. A contravention or failure to comply with the Code by any registered person or occupational therapy service provider will, of itself, amount to unprofessional conduct.
The Code has been published in the Government Gazette and will be posted to all registered persons and relevant stakeholders in October 2008.
