Description: Emphasizing a family-centered approach to treatment, Pediatric Occupational Therapy and Early Intervention is a practical guide to providing occupational therapy services to young children. Written by a team of expert clinicians, this text illustrates the importance of successful early intervention and confronts specific challenges faced by direct service providers. Covering both the principles of early intervention and the application of current theory to everyday practice, Pediatric Occupational Therapy and Early Intervention details focused treatment strategies such as sensory integration assessment, assistive technology, and the power of play.
