Our teacher told us to suggest an activity (such as arts and crafts) for children and adolescents with hemiplegia and (mild) spastic cerebral palsy. Any ideas anyone?? Thanks...

She is currently using a straight cane and the ALF manager feels that a rolling walker might be better. She called HOPE Therapy asking if PT or OT would be best for evaluating the client's needs. The client is diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. My very educated and strong OT advocate assistant told the manager that OT would be best. Just curious how other's on the list feel about this? Ron I advocate for OT with the best of them, but in this case I think it's PT. I'm sure there are OTs out there who would be capable, but most OTs are not provided the information in entry level education to make this sort of decision/transition.
