Evaluations & Assessments

60 min - 120 min session (cost varies)

This is the first and necessary step to meeting your needs.

In this comprehensive phase we collect the baseline data upon which we base our decision on how to proceed with therapy.

We may assess any or all of these areas and others not listed here:-

  1. Basic ADLs/IADLs, Mobility and Transfers, Home Safety, Reflexes, Balance, Fine Motor and Gross Motor Coordination, Strength, Range of Motion, Adaptive Equipment need and use, Smart Device use, Sensory Modulation, Behavior and Emotional regulation, Pain, Memory, Cognition and ability to follow directions etc;

  2. Home Modification assessments;

  3. School-based evaluations;

  • A plan of action is established in conjuction with the client. What do you want to achieve and; is it reasonable?

    A thorough assessment takes between 1-2 hours. In rare cases, the assessment may be completed in more than one session.

    Not all assessments and evaluations lead to an intervention or plan of care.

    Cost of service depends on type, location and duration of evaluation.

Treatments
& Interventions

60 min - 120 min session (cost varies)

Interventions are based on the findings in the assessment. This is when we determine the nature, frequency and duration of therapy.

We discuss the expectd outcome of the therapy and also provide additional resources that are available in the community.

Typical interventions include but are not limited to training/re-training in ADLs/IADLs, strengthening and balance training, coordination training, recommending adaptive equipment and other adaptive aids, smart device use training, recommending home modifications, optimizing the home environment for accessibility and performance, fall prevention and safety, removing barriers, liasing with other providers, educating team members and families, developing a home exercise program etc.

  • Services addressed here are non-traditional and highly customized for the individual.

    Many of these areas are not covered by traditional payer systems making it hard for many to even realize that they need assessment and intervention in these areas.

    These services involve basic assessment as the initial step and interventions formulated thereafter.

    The cost is highly variable in this area.

    The treatment is to enable you meet your goals.
