Your FAQ

Question: How does the Occupational Therapist help?

Answer: Occupational Therapists assess how people are managing everyday activities such as washing, dressing and climbing the stairs.
Ways of overcoming problems may include teaching you new ways of doing things, recommending special equipment, or alterations to your home; sometimes simply advice is enough.
