Occupational Therapy is defined by the American Occupational Therapy Association executive board (1976) as:
"The therapeutic use of work, self-care, and play activities to increase development and prevent disability. It may include adaptation of task or environment to achieve maximum independence and to enhance the quality of life."
Our Occupational Therapists will begin by working with the patient to determine what areas of the patient’s daily life are suffering. We will then determine how we can develop a program that will allow the client to perform these activities in a more functional, successful and independent manner. With these goals in mind, we will utilize repetitive exercises, in the context of a meaningful activity. |
