OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY

Occupational therapists enable our patients to live life to its fullest by helping them promote health, and prevent—or live better with—injury, illness, or disability. They will help our patients to recover from injury, to regain skills, and provide supports for older adults experiencing physical and cognitive changes.

Our occupational therapists have a holistic perspective, in which the focus is on adapting the environment and/or task to fit the person, and the person is an integral part of the therapy team. Our occupational therapy services include:

• Individualized evaluation, during which the patient, family and occupational therapist determine the person’s goals.
  
• Customized intervention to improve the patient’s ability to perform daily activities and reach the goals.
  
• Outcomes evaluation to ensure that the goals are being met and/or make change
