COVID-19 & Your Kids:
Adapting to the New Normal

 

By Annette Willett โ€“ Associate Occupational Therapist at  the Purple House Clinic,  Loughborough

 

What does it mean to be a child? What are their roles in life and how do they feel fulfilled and gain a sense of purpose? What exactly are the things that children need to do in their everyday lives? These are the central questions for an Occupational Therapist when looking at how best to help improve lives of the children they work with. When faced with challenges of any sort, be it accident, injury, hospitalisation, loss of confidence or mental trauma, inevitably there will be changes in a childโ€™s ability to engage in activities and changes to their everyday roles. There is great value, therefore, in considering the impact of Covid-19 from an Occupational Therapy perspective โ€“ to look at what these changes mean for our children and how their new circumstances will affect their roles in life and their engagement in activities and relationships.
