Brief Summary:
This study aims to measure the impact of a telehealth-based model of occupational therapy (OT) treatment on clinical outcomes for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and/or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Half of the participants will receive clinic-based, in-person services and half of the participants will receive video-based, Telehealth services.
Detailed Description:
Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and/or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) often receive occupational therapy (OT), which traditionally takes place in a clinical setting. This setting may present barriers and distractors that make it hard for children to achieve their OT goals. Telehealth-based sessions provide an alternative, allowing the therapist to be virtually present within the home.Once enrolled, children will randomly be assigned to be in one of two groups: (1) Standard, in which children will receive clinic-based services as per standard of care OR (2) Telehealth, in which children will receive in-home services on a video-based platform on a timeline identical to what they would receive if they were in the Standard group. Children in both groups will participate for the duration of the episode of care, estimated to last 10-12 weeks. Assessments will be completed at initial evaluation, discharge, and three months following discharge.
