Occupational Therapy in Pediatrics

Occupational therapy in pediatrics focuses on helping children develop the skills they need for everyday activities. This includes enhancing their ability to play, learn, interact socially, and perform self-care tasks like dressing and eating. Occupational therapists assess each child’s individual needs and create tailored plans that might involve exercises, activities, and adaptive tools. The goal is to improve their independence, confidence, and overall well-being, enabling them to participate fully in their daily lives, whether at home, school, or in the community.
