Either route is fine. What the OT needs on the first visit is enough context to design a programme that’s specific to you, not a generic one.

What a session looks like in Kuching
An initial learning disabilities (ot) session in Kuching is roughly an hour. The therapist watches the real activity, sets goals against the specific function you want back, and agrees the cadence, weekly at first, easing out as progress lands.
For this specialty, the most useful work happens at home, the therapist needs to see the actual bathroom, desk, bed, or kitchen in play. Home visits to Stutong and nearby addresses are routine; clinic sessions are an option where equipment or splinting is involved.
Each visit wraps with a written plan, two to four activities the family or worker runs until the next session. The OT in Kuching also co-ordinates with the school or workplace when relevant, and with other therapists if the plan overlaps physiotherapy, speech therapy, or psychology. Written progress notes are issued periodically for insurance or referring-doctor follow-up.
