Occupational therapy
|
Occupational therapy, often abbreviated to O.T., is the use of treatments to develop, recover, or maintain the daily living and work skills of people who have a physical, mental or developmental condition.
It is the only service provided by the Children with a Disability Team (CDT) which may be available to children and young people who are not eligible for targeted specialist services – level 3 in the 4-level system described on our Services page.
The occupational therapy process involves:
- Identifying daily activities that the person would like to perform or improve
- Making interventions to achieve those improvements
- Monitoring progress and outcomes
You can get more information about O.T. from your social worker or lead professional, as well as on the [Wiltshire Council website].
