As occupational therapists our role is to help children and young people develop, achieve and enjoy everyday life by:

  • Identifying the occupations they do well and those they find difficult
  • Identifying the personal, environmental and task-specific factors that help or limit children’s participation and enjoyment by finding ways to make it easier for children and young people to carry out the occupations that matter to the

We do this by recommending different ways of doing things, teaching new skills, using alternative equipment, or changing the environment.
