What is Initial OT Screening all about?
The Initial OT Screening offered by SCOPE Therapy Services is a foundational assessment designed to gain insights into a child’s unique developmental needs across motor, sensory, and functional skills. This screening utilizes both standardized and observational methods to understand strengths and potential areas requiring support, providing a crucial step towards effective intervention. By identifying developmental challenges early, we tailor intervention plans that enhance a child’s independence and success in daily life
Who will benefit from an Initial OT Screening?
The Initial OT Screening is ideal for children aged 0-18 who may show delays or challenges in areas such as motor skills, sensory processing, attention, play, and self-care activities. This screening is particularly beneficial for parents seeking an early understanding of their child’s development and a roadmap for supporting their progress. Families looking for guidance on improving their child’s functional skills in school, home, and community settings will find this screening valuable.
