Description
This course builds on learning from OC TH 6211 and 6212 to go further in-depth into the occupational therapy process in pediatrics. More complex occupational performance problems will be addressed, requiring students to develop competence in the OT process for children experiencing difficulty in areas such as sensory processing, behavior, and cognition. Students will demonstrate skills in the OT process and clinical reasoning by appropriately selecting and applying theories, evaluations, and evidence-based practices with a variety of pediatric clients. By the end of this course, students are expected to demonstrate entry-level competence in the area of pediatrics.
