Physical and Occupational Therapy
The Physical Therapy (PT) department at Key Center is dedicated to maximizing the physical potential of every student. The therapy staff evaluates and sets goals for students on an individual basis. Students who receive PT as a direct service will have gross motor goals on their IEPs. Other students do not require physical therapy services to participate in their educational program, but still have therapists available to check on them and intervene on their behalf should a temporary problem arise. When you visit Key Center, you will see us everywhere! We work with students in their classrooms, during Adapted PE, Art, and Music. We see students individually and in small groups—depending on students’ needs and IEP goals. We are proud to be part of the strong classroom teams that have been a trademark of Key Center for so many years. We train staff to work with students on their gross motor goals and to position students in adapted equipment for classroom activities. Family assistance is another strong facet of PT services. We work with families to help them secure adapted equipment and share information regarding student progress and concerns with their doctors.
