On December 8, 2023, the National Center for Children’s Rehabilitation completed the “Occupational Therapy” cycle of 72 academic hours.

During the training, students mastered a short course in anatomy, physiology, biomechanics of the upper extremities, swallowing organs, and chewing. They have mastered theoretical and practical skills in using innovative ergotherapeutic techniques in the rehabilitation of children and adults with neurological and orthopedic pathologies. Students completed practical classes in 6 departments of the center, in the social rehabilitation room, and independently studied literature in the center’s library. We learned the skills of using ergotherapeutic manipulations for children with swallowing and chewing disorders, correct positioning of patients, and using international scales in assessing patients. Every day we analyzed situational problems and completed test tasks.
