IEP Motor Screening

IEP Motor Screening

IEP Motor Screening - MyTherapyWizard help article card

OT IEP providers often get asked to complete Motor Screenings.  Motor screenings are a quick way to determine if a student may need a complete OT evaluation.   DPI in many states has given some guidance for what a motor screening should comprised of.   MyTherapyWizard makes the process easier for you and a motor screening can be done in 5 minutes (including the report generation) once the student has been observed. 

Go to the interactive tour here. 

You'll end up with a report that is fully editable for your needs.  No more wasting a bunch of time completing a motor screening! Below is the main parts of the generated report. 

It's a great day to be an MyTherapyWizard!

Clinical protocols built in

MyTherapyWizard is an EMR with clinical protocols built in. Every Guided Evaluation, questionnaire and standardized template follows a structured scoring protocol:

  • The quantitative areas (the items you rate) are scored on the back end with the same defined criteria, rules and performance bands for every client.
  • The qualitative areas (your comments, observations and narratives) go into the report as you wrote them.
  • Once the plan of care is active, its goals populate into your session notes. Each goal gets a Goal Performance Index (GPI) that combines accuracy with the support needed, so 70% independent and 70% with maximum assistance score differently. Each session gets a Session Performance Index (SPI), the average of its GPIs.
  • AI never assigns or changes a score. It only helps put finished results into words, and you approve every line.
