Instructor's Name: Joel Desotelle, MS OTR/L

Online/Printable/Mailed - 4 PDUs - Description: The development of prehension and coordination is essential to an infant's ability to play and explore. As hand skills mature, the infant becomes increasingly competent in exploring and playing with objects, a prerequisite for successful long-term development. This course describes the infant's development of grasp, release, and bimanual skills in the context of play, providing the therapist valuable information to apply to the therapeutic setting. This entry-level to intermediate course is offered to occupational therapists, physical therapists, and assistants.
