Assessment
At OT for Kids we have a wide range of experienced therapists who can offer assessments that will suit your child's needs. The therapist would use these assessments to gain a better insight into the difficulties your child is experiencing and how these are impacting on their ability to perform in activates at school or at home.
Benefits of OT assessments:
- Gain understanding behind your child's behaviour
- Identify clear goals
- Chance to discuss any worries/concerns with someone in the know
- Understand the difficulties your child is facing
- How these can impact on school/home life
- Increased awareness of the many therapy options available to improve your child's function

OT for Kids have been a great help in aiding my son Jake with coping with his dyspraxia both at home and in school. They came out to our house and completed the assessment at home.
