Occupational Therapy Assistant

Category - Acquiring Information

Ethan, your 6-year-old student with cerebral palsy, cannot jump on a trampoline, hop on one foot, or throw a ball. He has significant difficulty climbing the stairs at school. He already received adaptive physical education services. You discuss this with your OT department and agree that a referral should be made to:
  1. Speech and language therapy
  2. Physical therapy
  3. Special education
  4. Response to intervention team
Explanation
Answer: B. You agree to refer Ethan to physical therapy. Ethan already receives adaptive physical education, but continues to display problems with gross motor skills. So one-on-one intervention from a physical therapist is warranted.
