- Abstract
The purpose of this Doctoral Capstone Project was to create occupation-based interventions and resources to be used at the Indiana Hand to Shoulder Center that are geared toward the pediatric population. Through a thorough literature search, evidence-based intervention ideas were identified and created in the form of handouts and intervention bins to be used with pediatric patients. The purpose of the resources is to create intervention activities that consider both biomechanical concepts as well as the use of occupation-based activities to work toward meeting therapy goals with pediatric patients. With play being a child’s main occupation, interventions are geared toward facilitating play while working to improve strength and range of motion. The goal of the resources was to create bins and home exercise handouts that include activities that therapists can replicate in the clinic and are also motivating and easily engage the child. To measure the effectiveness of the resources created, a four-question survey was administered to therapists and parents of pediatric patients asking them to rate the level of effectiveness of the bins and the handouts for future use at the Indiana Hand to Shoulder Center.
