Pediatric Skills for Occupational Therapy Assistants

Rating:
Summary: Invaluable resource written especially for the COTA.
Review: As a student of the author, I may be a little prejudicial, but I think this book is a wonderful pediatric sourcebook. It is written in an easy to follow manner, and defines the roles between an OTR and the COTA. It offers chapters on the different systems children may be treated in, principles of development, common diagnoses, and treatment approaches. The case studies, and suggested activities help to absorb the information given in the chapters and apply it to a clinical setting. An invaluable resource for the future COTA!!
