Abstract
There is a growing demand for primary health care services in South Africa following its adoption by the National Departmet of Health in 1995. To address this demand, the government has implemented compulsory community service (CCS) for all health professional graduates, many of whom are placed in unde-resourced areas of the country with limited infrastructure or professional supervision. Occupational therapy graduates therefore require appropriate knowledge, skills and attitudes for primary health care practice.
