Abstract
  • Caregiver involvement is crucial in the success of therapeutic interventions in the pediatric population. One of the roles of an occupational therapist is to provide modifications & adaptations for increased success in daily occupations, which in pediatric populations can include parent education. The purpose of this project was to create caregiver education resources for increased implementation of therapeutic interventions into daily routines. This project consisted of data collection in forms of surveys and Zoom meetings with the result of creating resources based on current family’s needs. Based on their discipline, different practitioners reviewed the 49 handouts that were created. The results of this project were increased therapist satisfaction for greater access to resources as well as therapy practitioners stating they were more likely to share these new resources with the families they serve. According to the therapists at this pediatric facility who completed the post-survey, creating easily accessible resources will be effective for improving services they provide for families.
