Easter Seals Disability Services

Occupational Therapy is the art and science of facilitating the development of skills necessary for daily functions such as fine motor skills, self-care and play/leisure activities.

Our Occupational Therapy Department is comprised of dynamic, committed and experienced professionals invested in bringing state of the art treatment to children with various disabilities. Their creative programming is geared to best meet the needs of the various populations we serve.

We evaluate and treat children with the diagnoses of sensory integration dysfunction, attention deficit disorder and the autism spectrum with services such as:

• Specific sensory-motor groups emphasizing coordination, socialization and self-regulation.
• Sensory integration treatment (organizing sensory input for function and learning.
• Joint treatment intervention with ST and SW.
• Community-based sensory motor programs.
• Consultation and education.

In the evaluation and treatment of children with various neurological and/or developmental disabilities we have therapists certified in:

• Neurodevelopmental treatment for all ages, infancy through adult.
• Electric stimulation for strengthening and motor learning.
• Customizing adaptations for positioning and activities of daily living including splinting, casting and taping.

In addition, we have strong relationships with many physician groups formulating specialty services to provide more comprehensive management of a child's individual challenges. For example: upper extremity/hand clinic, vision clinic, behavior management clinic, neonatal follow-up clinic.
