Occupational Therapy
Our Occupational Therapist treat individuals who have lost some ability to perform functions of their everyday life due to a physical, mental or cognitive disorder. Occupational Therapists focus on treatment that helps to develop, recover or maintain the patients’ daily living and/or work skills so they can return to their daily routine.
Occupational Therapy is often confused with the specific treatment of workman’s comp/ vocational/ job training cases and, though Occupational Therapists do help with these lines of treatment, the majority of their work is to identify and eliminate environmental barriers to a patient’s independence and participation in their daily home activities. Occupational Therapists focus on adapting the environment, modifying tasks, teaching skills, and/or educating the patient (and their support system/family) in order to increase their participation and performance of their daily activities, especially those activities that are the most meaningful to the patient.
For an adult, this often means patients being able to taking care of themselves, their homes, enjoying their off-time, and/or successfully returning to their careers. For children, this means often means being able to brush their teeth, being able to play, or use their utensils or even crayons.
