Doing it "Just Right"

Practicing the idea of the “just right challenge” is very important in the field of occupational therapy. As practitioners, we must be aware that all of our clients are unique. One therapeutic related activity might bring pleasure to one client and frustration to another. In addition, it is idea to provide the appropriate grade for those activities.  Knowing how difficult or easy to grade an occupation related activity is essential for our clients! This leads to a more efficient intervention phase within the OT process. A balance is created for the needs of what the client wants to do and the specificity of that client.
