Occupational Therapy

“She’s no longer a visitor in her own home; she is Jaxx again.” - Jaxx’s mum. Jaxx regained many of the abilities she lost following a road accident.

If illness, injury or disability prevents a patient from completing everyday tasks, our Occupational Therapists can help them make changes so they can carry out routine activities with greater independence and success.

How we help
From seating and splinting, to home and community access, and personal care, we help people achieve greater quality of life by:

-	assessing their abilities to perform everyday tasks such as washing and dressing, domestic and leisure activities.
-	maximising comfort and minimising risk through careful bed and chair positioning assessments.
-	enhancing autonomy by making key changes to equipment and the environment that will give each individual greater levels of control.
-	planning practically for a transition to independent living and returning to work.
