Visit us on Facebook for new Therapy Nuggets throughout the week!

Facebook Therapy Nuggets from July 13 – 20:

July 20: One of the best diversions for a manual tactile sensory-seeking student is to place a 24-inch piece of yarn in the student’s hands and invite the student to manipulate it at will. – John Taylor, Ph.D.

July 18: A fun pool game: Use ping pong balls as “fishes” and give each child a small strainer to “catch” them in. Caught fish are put into a container and when the container is full, dump it over so the fish “get away” and have to be caught again! – Barbara Sher, MA, OTR, Early Intervention Games from CA

July 15: UptoTen.com has 1353 FREE games that are categorized and great for working on a variety of Occupational Therapy skills. Recommended to click on “up to ten free,” then “search”, then choose the game or educational category you are interested in. The list that is provided is organized by age level! – Kim Wiggins, OTR/L, CP-BC

July 13: One of the significant changes for the proposed CMS Home Care rules for 2012 is that face-to-face MD requirements would be extended to Medicaid patients. Read more about it here. – Eileen Bach, PT, M.Ed, DPT
