This past weekend, I participated in the Lucky Fin Project weekend for people affected by upper limb differences.

A compilation of testimonials from interns who participated in On The Other Hand Therapy’s Preschool Motor Group Internship 2022-2023
The PMG Leadership Corps is a selective internship experience for a small group of talented and motivated undergraduates seeking to enter the OT or PT profession.
We treat each child as a unique person, not as someone in need of “fixing.” After determining what struggles are interfering with the child’s success in school, at home, or in extracurricular activities, we create an individually-tailored OT treatment program to address their challenges while incorporating their strengths and interests, with the goal of improving function, joy, and participation. We have experience in a wide variety of evidence-based occupational therapy interventions, strategies, and techniques.
The preschool motor group (PMG) concept was inspired by Athena Oden, PT, creator of the Ready Bodies, Learning Minds curriculum. Since 2010, On The Other Hand Therapy has implemented the PMG program successfully at multiple preschools and elementary schools in the central Ohio area.
