The methodology "SEMAFOR home" serves professionals – especialially OTs and others working with persons suffering motoric impairment – as a tool when performing home visits for optimalization of home environment.

The descriptive part is filled in by the evaluator and presents the basic data for client´s identification.
MoreSubjective evaluation
Subjective evaluation is performed by the client (or with someone´s help) before the OT starts the evaluation of the household.
