What we offer Children |
Quality Independence Ltd can provide an occupational therapy assessment for any child, whatever their level of difficulty or ability. Your child may have a mild difficulty that is impacting on their ability to complete everyday tasks, or they may have a complex disability that is preventing all independent activity. Problems that children may experience include: dressing, washing, holding toys or other objects, writing, using a computer, playing games, riding a bike, using scissors or other tools, and many more daily activities. Quality Independence can offer an assessment tailored to your child's needs and provide you with detailed advice and a full written report (which could be submitted to your Local Educational Needs Panel). You can also choose to book occupational therapy treatment sessions. For some children supportive equipment or home adaptations may also be advisable and Quality Independence will be able to assess for and enable provision of these too.
