In line with the American Occupational Therapy Association’s Vision 2025, the author utilizes a program proposal to stakeholders to demonstrate the distinct value of occupational therapy. Through a detailed program manual, with specific modules for use by occupational therapists, the authpr practices scholarship of application and scholarship of teaching and learning. Living with lymphedema-related symptoms often result in a decrease in quality of life. The author’s goal of maximizing health, well-being, and quality of life in members of the community affected by lymphedema and or related symptoms will be accomplished through a community-based program. Incorporation of evidence-based practice in program development allows the author to use appropriate planning, interventions, and assessments in the formulation of a program facilitated by occupational therapists. Presenting evidence to support the need for a community-based program for individuals with lymphedema requires an appraisal of current research, critical thinking, and strategizing program implementation. In combining a holistic view of members of the community, occupation therapy models, and frames of reference the author aims to develop a program to meet the needs of those affected by lymphedema and or related symptoms.
