Supporting Children with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder: Potential Applications of a Snoezelen Multisensory Room
Bergstrom, Veronica N. Z.; O'Brien-Langer, Anna; Marsh, Rebeccah
Journal of Occupational Therapy, Schools & Early Intervention, v12 n1 p98-114 2019
How are mental health practitioners using Snoezelen rooms with children with fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) within a community mental health setting? Using purposive sampling, we collected information from seven practitioners on how they currently use Snoezelen rooms to support children with FASD and what evidence they believe is needed to assess Snoezelen's treatment efficacy. Using grounded theory methodology, results indicated that priority research areas include the efficacy of Snoezelen for increasing self-regulation skills, positive parent-child interactions, and parent education. To support evidence-driven use of Snoezelen rooms for mental health treatment, we recommend that future research be focused in these areas.
