Some skills need to supported and worked on at home such as skills children need to look after themselves eg. dressing, preparing food, organising workspaces or getting ready for school. In some situations, we are working with families to support their child’s self-regulation and it is important that this work also gets done at home.
OT FOR KIDS offers home-based occupational therapy for clients who also attend the clinic in Blacktown for short blocks of time to work on specific goals. As we are not a home-based service, this is negotiated with families depending upon the goals they have for their child and the treating Occupational Therapists availability.
