Abstract
Background. Occupational therapists support workers who have experienced a mental health issue in their return-to-work process, but can also support the maintenance of long-term healthy participation. Little scientific literature exists to understand this emerging role. Purpose. To describe occupational therapists' interventions with respect to enabling workers to maintain their mental health. Method. Using a descriptive qualitative design, interviews were conducted with 19 occupational therapists working in socioprofessional rehabilitation. Findings. Occupational therapists reported to implemente 31 interventions, devided in eight categories. These interventions were mainly focused on the workers themselves; those involving the environment were less developed. Implications. The interventions described with specificity offer concrete levers that occupational therapists can use in their practice. However, research is needed to evaluate the effectiveness of these interventions.Entities:
