Ep. 59 Coaching in Early Intervention

Send us a Text or VoicemailMost OTs in early intervention think they're coaching, BUT the research says otherwise. In this episode, we discuss a scoping review on caregiver coaching in early intervention — the five key ingredients, why the model can be hard to do in real life, and five action steps you can take into someone's living room on a Thursday morning. Turns out coaching is a skill, not a vibe. Let's get better at it.We share our own thoughts in the Research Review and encourage you to read the original article too.Seruya, F.
