Video Modeling for Caregivers to Use with Children in the Home

Cindy Nankee, OTR/L, ATP

April 28, 2014

Question

Do you ever train parents/caregivers in the use of video modeling for self-care routines in the home?

Answer

Yes. I present many workshops in the Midwest on video modeling. Often parents and caregivers will attend these events to learn how to use this intervention technique.  I have also offered to go out to homes to train these caregivers in the use of video modeling for self-care routines. I can train them in breaking down the steps of the activities, using the equipment and editing the final product.
