What is Occupational Therapy (OT)?
'Occupation' refers to any activity that is meaningful and / or essential to a person's everyday functioning. This could be getting washed and dressed, cooking a meal, going to work or taking part in a leisure activity.
An Occupational Therapist will assess a person's difficulties and abilities, and use functional treatment approaches to increase participation, safety and independence in their day to day life. They may also recommend specific aids, equipment and / or environmental adaptations to further improve their function.
