Occupational therapy can help kids improve their cognitive, physical, and motor skills. This therapy also enhances their self-esteem and sense of accomplishment.

At the Pediatric Outpatient Rehabilitation and Sports Medicine program at RMHC at P/SL, an occupational therapist evaluates your child's skills for play activities, school performance and activities of daily living, and compares these skills to what is developmentally appropriate for her age.
