When does a child require occupational therapy?
Occupational therapy supports a child’s ability to take part in daily activities with their family members and those around them, such as playing and learning. A specialist in occupational therapy focuses on what you and your child need and desire to accomplish, such as your child’s own dependency, educational excelling, and effective day to day interaction. Occupational therapy helps your child to:
- Achieve desired goals and improve life skills: This can be done by, for example, assisting a teenager with learning difficulties in acquiring the needed skills to move from high school into the workplace in a way that adapts to their abilities and their right to live independently as they grow older.
- Maintain a healthy lifestyle: This can be achieved by, for example, helping a student with special needs to exercise in order to maintain a healthy built and strong sensory and motor skills.
- Participate in daily activities: This can be done by choosing the appropriate toys for your child in order to help them develop their cognitive abilities and be able to interact socially with others.
In short, an occupational therapy specialist can help patients live normally given the disabilities or impediments they have.
Occupational Therapy Strategy:
Occupational therapy intervenes in the growth and development of babies and toddlers through play and interaction with surrounding environments by:
- Simplify the techniques of sitting, crawling, and walking.
- Enhance the ability to pay attention and follow basic guidelines and rules.
- Enhance the ability to eat, drink, get dressed, wash hands, etc.
- Enhance the ability to participate in activities with peers.
- Participate in daily routine with age.
The Specialists in the center assist the children in developing their abilities to become an independent individual; boost their confidence in facing obstacles, and help them acquire new skills at the end of each session so that they grow up to be the best that they can be.
