Brainwave currently has three permanent Centres, Essex, Somerset and Cheshire.

Brief description of OT role

The OT will evaluate a child or infant's performance compared to what is developmentally expected of that age group. If there is a discrepancy between developmental expectations and function, the OT will look at various neuromuscular, perceptual/cognitive factors, which influence function. A child's key function focuses on play, age appropriate self care skills and educational needs.
