Exploring Advanced Sensory Processing in Adult Occupational Therapy
Designed for OTs who have already completed the Sensory Processing in Adults Course run by Nikki, or those who have an understanding of the principles of sensory processing including assessment and intervention concepts.
This workshop will step attendees through the process of how to work with clients with identified sensory processing issues to implement an advanced program of sensory-based intervention for complex (including non-verbal) clients. The aim of the training will be to assist OTs to implement sensory processing interventions with complex clients with goals including increasing engagement and independence and limiting adverse behaviours. How to then confidently disseminate findings and recommendations to caregivers and stakeholders will also be discussed.
Workshop duration: 2 Hours Workshop

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING
Overall I found the training a good opportunity to reflect on my practice and use as a refresher. It was a good reminder to spend time thoroughly analysing and gathering information to ensure sensory recommendations are effective for the individual and their environment.
Amazing presenter and workshop! The workshop was engaging and deeply informative, providing a thorough exploration sensory processing. Def a must for OTs working with those who have complex needs as it equips OTs with advanced tools / resources to assess and address sensory processing differences.
