Occupational therapists focus on assessing the patients' working and functional capacity, ability to take care of themselves and function of the hands. On the pediatric side, the examination performed by an occupational therapist aims to clarify the development of the child in relation to his or her age, how the child copes with play and other everyday situations. In addition, tasks include the mapping of medical appliance needs and the manufacture of individual hand orthoses.

 
The services are available based on a referral from a physician at Hyvinkää Hospital.
