  • Measure and document student progress resulting from the designed physical therapy interventions.

  • Coordinate physical therapy interventions within the student's educational program.
  • Adapt environments to facilitate student access and participation in the educational program.
  • Educate school personnel and families to promote inclusion of students within the educational setting by developing, demonstrating, training, and monitoring the effectiveness of strategies and intervention activities, and subsequently using gathered data to make program modification decisions. This includes the use of assistive technology for access and participation in the general education curriculum.
  • Support the safe transportation of students.
  • Serve as a liaison among school, medical personnel, and medical equipment vendors.
