  • Routine capacity building focuses on supporting adults to develop and implement a graded routine that enables participation in activities of daily living.

    We employ a collaborative approach that includes family members and support workers, and integrates assistive technology to support consistency, reduce reliance on external prompting and promote greater independence for the participant.

    Tom’s area of focus is developing routine with adults who have neurological and developmental differences - such as autism or intellectual disability.

    Telehealth OT is accepting referrals for capacity building with routine.
