My son's visits to occupational therapy

Posted By Louwoo

"My son's visits to occupational therapy"

About: Royal Aberdeen Children's Hospital / Occupational Therapy

(as a parent/guardian),

My son was referred by his school for gross motor skills. On our first visit we weren’t sure what to expect but wow the guys there are amazing, not once did we think he was being assessed as they make it out to be so much fun and my son was so relaxed and felt so comfortable.

When it came to his next visits and the special tasks wow it was so much fun and the guys were so involved and made it enjoyable, I especially love that the equipment they use is not expensive and can be easily carried at home. 

My son has now been discharged and was crying on his way home as he is going to miss coming down and seeing them all. I can’t but thank you for everything.

Thank you so much for leaving such lovely feedback about the occupational therapy team. I am delighted that your son got such pleasure out of his visits. It always makes it so much easier to get them to do things if it is fun for them doesn't it.

The team do a tremendous job and will be delighted to receive your feedback which I will ensure reaches them.

Thank you again for taking time to leave feedback
