YOUR KIDS OT
DIRECT OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY SERVICES
Comprehensive assessment and report
Standardised and non-standardised tests are used to determine a child’s strengths and weaknesses and how occupational therapy may help your child. A comprehensive report is provided outlining the assessment results and any goals for future therapy.
Individual therapy sessions
Individual therapy sessions are usually 30 or 45 minutes long and may be conducted weekly or fortnightly as required. Individual therapy sessions may be conducted in the child's home, at school, preschool or child care centre.
Group therapy sessions
Group therapy sessions are usually 45 minutes long and may include 2 or more children. Group therapy sessions may be conducted in the child's home, at school or child care centre.
Preschool or School Screening Services
Preschool and school screening services provide a quick overview of a child's play, fine motor, visual perceptual and handwriting skills. A brief summary report is provided. These services are provided based on negotiation between the educational setting and Your Kids OT where more than one child are seen. These educational settings will then work closely with Your Kids OT with any further delivery of therapy sessions to individual children.
