Occupational Therapy

Occupational therapy is the art and science of enabling people to engage in everyday living, through either their occupation or by enabling them to perform the activities that foster health and well-being. We strive to have people achieve their full potential in the daily occupations of life.

Our Occupational Therapists use a systematic approach based on evidence and professional reasoning to enable individuals, families, groups, communities, organizations, or populations to develop the means and opportunities to identify and engage in the occupations of life. Our collaborative process involves assessing, planning, implementing, monitoring and evaluating the client in relation to occupational engagement in self-care, work, study, volunteerism and leisure. Our therapists use key enablement skills such as adaptation, coaching, collaboration, consultation, coordination, designing/building, educating, engaging and specializing to enable one in their occupation. Our treatment team ensures the most cost and time effective treatment for your family member, client or patient. Our Occupational Therapy Team provides:

  • Wheelchair assessments
  • Home needs assessment
  • Hospital discharge planning
  • Jobsite analysis
  • Goal setting
  • Return to work planning
  • Case management
