A typical pediatric Occupational Therapy Evaluation will assess the the following skill sets:
- Fine motor (including, but not limited to, handwriting)
- Gross motor
- Visual motor
- Visual perception
- Daily living
- Sensory processing
- Integration (how sensory information contributes to emotional regulation, learning, and behavior)
- Praxis (how a lesson or skill is realized)
Some of the tools we use to perform an evaluation include standardized assessments, non-standardized assessments, parent interviews, and clinical observations. All of this data is used to design the appropriate treatment plan and goals for each child.
