Pommard
Session Description

How do you facilitate play? How do you assess what position would best incorporate the goals you are working on with a child? Where/how do you stand, sit, kneel or lay? What kinds of positions benefit children under what circumstances? And by the way, are we having fun yet?

This presentation will provide foundational knowledge and practice regarding positioning of a child with a physical disability during RT treatment. Approaches based in development, individual goal attainment, family involvement, inclusion and socialization will be included.

Learning Outcomes

1. Contrast assessment information and the objectives of individual treatment sessions to determine position options
2. Identify at least 4 different play positions appropriate to use during treatment
3. Describe at least 3 scenarios and apply the position for play that facilitates the goals identified for the child in the case
4. Demonstrate at least 3 positions to be used with a child during the treatment session
