Our occupational therapists use task directed activities in the treatment of our patients whose ability to function has been impaired by illness, injury or normal aging.

Therapeutic activities assist our patients in adapting to their social and physical environment by helping them master tasks essential for daily living. Our occupational therapists may work with our patients who have debilitating arthritic conditions or those with difficulty bathing, dressing and other activities of daily living. They assist our patients with impaired vision and/or hearing to function well in their environment. Our enhanced occupational therapy services include a full kitchen dedicated to occupation therapy training.

Treatment goals may include:

• Functional independence- eating bathing, toileting, homemaking, cooking
• Maintenance of wellness- dressing, grooming
• Prevention of further disability- home assessments and modifications, adaptive equipment
• Increasing safety awareness
