Occcupational Therapy Clinic

The Department of Occupational Therapy at The College of St. Scholastica offers an Occupational Therapy Clinic designed to give students a supervised "hands-on" opportunity to work directly with adults and children as part of their occupational therapy coursework. The goal of the clinic is to provide a community service to individuals who may not be eligible for occupational therapy services, are uninsured or underinsured, or who have limits on their insurance coverage. The clinic's purpose is to support a client's existing programming. The clinic is not designed to replace or compete with existing services in the community.

The Occupational Therapy Clinic offers two separate clinics. There is an adult clinic offered Fall Semester and a pediatric clinic offered Spring Semester.

The Mission of the Occupational Therapy Clinic is to:

Provide occupational therapy students with supervised opportunities to interact directly with individuals having a variety of diagnoses.

Referral Procedures:
Anyone may access the services of the clinic. The number of openings are limited by the number of occupational therapy students. For more information contact the OT Clinic at (218) 723-6099.

Fees:
A nominal clinic access fee is charged to offset the operating costs of the clinic. A scholarship program is available for those who cannot afford the fee. Insurance companies are not billed for services.

Kelly Erickson, PhD, OTR/L, and Barbara Larson, MA, OTR/L, FAOTA, are the OT Clinic supervisors.
