Our Care & Approach at Empower Hutto Occupational Therapy Services

Standardized assessment tests, skilled observations, questionnaires, and interviews with parents or caregivers play a crucial role in the initial evaluation and ongoing assessment of individuals. These tools help occupational therapy gain a comprehensive understanding of the individual’s strengths, difficulties, sensory differences, motor skills, cognitive abilities, and social-emotional functioning. This information forms the foundation for developing personalized intervention plans. Once the assessment is complete, the occupational therapy establishes baseline goals, which are reviewed with the caregivers and Guardians. These goals typically focus on areas such as sensory processing, fine or gross motor movement, daily self-care, social interactions, play quality, emotional regulation, role balance, and academic concerns.
