Abstract
During the COVID-19 pandemic, occupational therapy’s transition to telehealth service delivery for families of children in early intervention (EI) highlighted the strengths and distinct contribution of the profession during unprecedented times. It is more important than ever that occupational therapy demonstrates its distinct value in providing EI services through telehealth. This text acknowledges that telehealth is a critical part of occupational therapy within EI systems and draws on the expertise of researchers and practitioners to offer evidence-based, practical methods to engage in assessment and intervention planning with families served in EI.
