The role of OT in a school based setting: unpacking IEPs and 504 plans with Casey Waugh, MS OTR/L

4/3/2023 • 52 min

It's Occupational Therapy month and we are celebrating by highlighting some of the ways you can get OT support for your children. Today we're talking about OT support through the public school system, specifically in the United States. This episode covers basic information about IEP services and 504 plans, how they differ and how to effectively create a support team that has your child's best interests in mind. Casey Waugh is a pediatric occupational therapist with 11 years of experience in outpatient, early intervention, and school settings. Casey’s passion is to elevate parent confidence through education and advocacy. Her social media channel OT Time with Casey was created in response to a desire to help fill gaps between professional knowledge and parent knowledge. Casey has focused her effort on learning and training in the areas of feeding, sensory processing, and special education processes particularly in regard to ADHD and OT in schools. On a personal note, she is a mom of two active and sweet little boys, and the idea of a perfect date night with her hubs is a night on the couch watching The Office with their cats Frank and Beans.
