About this service
Occupational therapy helps people participate in all areas of their lives. A child's main occupations are playing, learning, and daily living, and occupational therapy can help a child to take part in activities from all areas of life.
To help the child to participate, the occupational therapist might do some of the following:
- Work with the child and caregiver to develop the child's skills (eg: cutting skills)
- Make changes to the materials being used (eg: larger tabs on a jacket zipper)
- Suggest changes to the surroundings (eg: position of the child in the classroom)
- Suggest a different approach to the activity (eg: break the task down into smaller steps)
Education is a very important part of the therapy process. The occupational therapist will provide the family, caregivers and teachers with information and tools to help the child participate.
Who can use it?
Children with an identified need(s) (up to age 19).
