Occupational therapy helps you with activities of daily living
While you’re recovering, an occupational therapist may be part of your care team. We provide cognitive (brain) function evaluations, assess your home environment for physical barriers to your recovery at home, and deliver therapies to help improve your quality of life. Our occupational therapists also specialize in:
Occupational therapy in different settings
Our specialists provide occupational therapy in the hospital, at outpatient rehabilitation clinics, as part of home health care, and at stand-alone inpatient rehabilitation facilities. Our goal is to help you regain skills to improve your functional and cognitive skills, so you can get back to doing the things you enjoy.
Multispecialty rehabilitation services
Occupational therapy is one type of rehabilitation. Along the way, your care may require other rehabilitation services, such as physical therapy, speech-language pathology or physical medicine and rehabilitation. Your care team will help you schedule appointments, connect with other services, and answer your questions. From your first therapy appointment and throughout your ongoing care, your doctor will stay informed about your progress.
