Melissa Hale: clinical evidence
Episode 8
Tuesday, 10 December, 2024
An 'emergency' podcast recorded and released amidst the current events regarding proposed changes to music therapy funding and the NDIS in Australia.We've just learnt that one of the key critiques of the NDIA, is that music therapists are not providing sufficient "clinical evidence" for their work. While some of this is likely coming from non-RMTs, acting fraudulently, the reports of all RMTs are clearly under examination.To support RMTs to be giving sufficient clinical evidence, I speak to my OT friend Melissa Hale. Mel is a highly experienced OT and understands how to measure and set meaningful goals.The standardised assessments mentioned in this podcast episode are:Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency | Second Edition (BOT-2) https://www.pearsonassessments.com/store/usassessments/en/Store/Professional-Assessments/Motor-Sensory/Bruininks-Oseretsky-Test-of-Motor-Proficiency-%7C-Second-Edition/p/100000648.html Sensory Integration and Praxis Tests https://paa.com.au/product/sipt/Beery-Buktenica Developmental Test of Visual-Motor Integration https://www.pearsonassessments.com/store/usassessments/en/Store/Professional-Assessments/Motor-Sensory/Beery-Buktenica-Developmental-Test-of-Visual-Motor-Integration-%7C-Sixth-Edition/p/100000663.htmlAges & Stages Questionnaires®, Third Edition (ASQ®-3) https://agesandstages.com/products-pricing/asq3/SCAN-3C: Test for Auditory Processing Disorders in Children https://www.pearsonclinical.com.au/store/auassessments/en/Store/Professional-Assessments/Speech-%26-Language/SCAN-3C%3A-Test-for-Auditory-Processing-Disorders-in-Children/p/P100010068.htmlSensory Profile 2 https://www.pearsonassessments.com/store/usassessments/en/Store/Professional-Assessments/Motor-Sensory/Sensory-Profile-2/p/100000822.htmlDraw-a-Person test https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draw-a-Person_testTest of Everyday Attention https://www.pearsonclinical.com.au/store/auassessments/en/Store/Professional-Assessments/Behaviour/Attention-ADHD/Test-of-Everyday-Attention/p/P100010070.html
