Occupational therapists need to anticipate the potential for disasters. Establishing systems and organising activities beforehand can facilitate a prompt and efficient response, mitigating fear and anxiety in the process.

Consider incorporating technology, such as telehealth platforms, to ensure continuity of care during disruptions.
