Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

As an occupational therapy practitioner, your role is to work with the child and family on developing new habits and routines that will occur following the transition out of early intervention. This may include helping the child develop new self-help skills, working on sensory integration strategies for the home environment, or addressing any other unique needs of the child and family. It is important to start this process well before the child turns 3, to ensure a smooth and successful transition. The other choices (A, B, and D) may be important considerations in some cases, but do not accurately reflect the primary role of an occupational therapy practitioner in this situation.
