Expert Occupational Therapy Sensory Assessments to Support Your Child’s Sensory Needs
At Posity, we provide thorough, personalised sensory assessments designed to support sensory processing, improve comfort, and empower independence.
Introduction to Occupational Therapy Sensory Assessments
Sensory processing is fundamental to how we experience and engage with the world. When sensory processing challenges arise, they can impact comfort, behaviour, and participation in daily life. Our sensory assessments help pinpoint specific sensory needs, providing essential insights to guide personalised intervention plans for both children and adults. At Posity, we use the outcomes of these assessments to create actionable strategies that enhance comfort, engagement, and independence across environments.
Types of Sensory Assessments Offered
Sensory Profile 2 Assessment
This structured tool evaluates sensory processing patterns and their impact on daily functioning. It helps us understand each individual’s unique sensory responses and tailor strategies to promote positive sensory engagement.
Sensory Processing Measure (SPM)
The SPM assesses sensory processing in multiple settings, including home, school, and community. It offers a holistic view of sensory challenges across environments, making it ideal for creating well-rounded support plans.
Sensory Integration Assessment
An in-depth evaluation of sensory integration and regulation, this assessment identifies specific sensory integration needs and guides targeted interventions that address sensory processing difficulties directly.
Customised Sensory Processing Evaluations for Adults and Children
We provide tailored assessments based on each individual’s age, preferences, and needs, ensuring that both children and adults receive age-appropriate, meaningful support.
Benefits of Sensory Assessments
Sensory assessments offer numerous benefits for individuals facing sensory processing challenges:
Identification of Sensory Strengths and Challenges
By understanding each person’s unique sensory profile, we can design strategies that celebrate their strengths and address areas of difficulty.
Personalised Interventions for Daily Comfort
Our occupational therapists develop targeted interventions that enhance comfort, participation, and enjoyment in everyday activities, whether at home, school, or work.
Practical Recommendations for Home, School, or Work
We provide practical guidance and easy-to-implement strategies to ensure individuals feel supported and capable in their environments.
Empowered Decision-Making
Sensory assessments provide invaluable insights, enabling clients and caregivers to make informed, proactive decisions about daily supports and interventions.
