Summary:The objective of this report is to present a case-based, investigative examination of clinical education aimed at bolstering occupation-centered evidence-based practice (EBP). The participant was an occupational therapist employed at a convalescent hospital. The clinical education program, which lasted approximately six months, was based on occupation-centered EBP competencies. Alongside providing guidance and advice regarding the clinical scenario of the assigned case, individual lectures were administered according to the intervention's progress. Pre-and post-education, there was a marked improvement in participants' attitudes and perceptions regarding EBP, as well as a boost in their professional identities. These developments suggest the clinical education program's utility in supporting occupation-centered EBP.
