Dynamic OT

Community Rehabilitation is done through an initial assessment completed with standardized and functionally based cognitive assessments which are then used to determine cognitive abilities and limitations.  Findings can be used as base line data and to direct intervention.  Intervention involves both compensatory strategies and or remediation depending on the need. We meet with clients in the home providing intervention in the home and in their community. Frequency depends on the program however typically on a weekly basis.

Therapy plans are highly individualized and developed in collaboration with the client. Therapy can include education and strategies around attention, memory,  executive functioning through Goal Management Training and back to school/work assistance.

 We also conduct therapy plans for hand/upper body training to improve strength, range of motion, coordination and dexterity.

Cognitive Functional Evaluations are done in clinic. We offer both one and two day assessments. The assessment looks at determining a client’s level of cognitive and perceptual function through standardized tools and observation of functional/work simulation activities.  The assessment can compare a client’s current function to that required of the demands of their job.  The assessment could also be used as a baseline tool. The CFCE testing also looks at reliability of cognitive reports and consistency of effort. This evaluator is trained using the Matheson System.
