Thank you, Amy Elias and Jessica Vanorsdale for your support and dedication to Morgan County students.
School-based occupational therapists (OTs) use meaningful activities (occupations) to help children and youth participate in what they need and/or want to do in order to promote physical and mental health and well-being. Occupational therapy addresses the physical, cognitive, psychosocial and sensory components of performance. In schools, occupational therapists focus on academics, play and leisure, social participation, self-care skills (ADLs or Activities of Daily Living), and transition/work skills. Occupational therapy’s expertise includes activity and environmental analysis and
modification with a goal of reducing the barriers to participation.
