The treatment session for Ben will be conducted in the therapy gym of the acute
rehabilitation hospital since the gym provides a versatile and well-equipped space conducive to
various therapeutic activities. To meet safety needs, the environment will be organized with clear
pathways and designated areas for different tasks, minimizing potential hazards, while furniture
and equipment will be arranged to ensure accessibility and prevent any obstacles that might
impede Ben’s movement. The setup will include adaptive tools and supportive aids tailored to
Ben’s needs, promoting independence and reducing the risk of accidents, in which case safety
measures such as non-slip mats and stable seating will be implemented to enhance stability
during activities because the therapy gym’s controlled and monitored setting allows for
immediate assistance if needed, ensuring a secure environment for both therapeutic engagement
and the client’s well-being. To enhance engagement, the focus will be on creating a client-
centered space since personalizing the environment with familiar objects and incorporating

adaptive kitchen tools to enhance independence. As the therapist, I will position myself at Ben’s
eye level, fostering a collaborative atmosphere, in which case I provide verbal instructions and
visual demonstrations, catering to Ben’s learning style. I will utilize adaptive equipment,
including modified utensils and a stable cutting board, to address specific needs and enhance

interests, so I will communicate clearly and concisely, emphasizing the chosen activity’s
therapeutic goals and relevance. This client-centered approach aims to ensure comprehension
and active participation while fostering a sense of autonomy, allowing seamless execution, and
can serve as a guide for both the therapist and anyone replicating the session.
