Quality Occupational Therapy

Our occupational therapists (OTs) address each patient's ability to perform the following:

Activities of Daily Living (ADLs)

• Bathing and dressing
• Personal hygiene & grooming
• Eating & feeding
• Home management

Perception/Cognition

• Coordination
• Executive functions

Upper Extremity Functioning

• Adaptive equipment training
• Strength, range of motion
• Coordination & sensation splinting

Safety Awareness

• Body image & scheme
• Precautions post surgery
• Energy conservation

The treatment plan for short-term rehab patients also includes homemaking and re-entry programs. In fact, our rehabilitation gym contains a portion dedicated to a kitchen area where patients practice their food prep and cooking skills. Here, OTs supervise patients' home management skills to assure safety upon returning home. Prior to discharge, a comprehensive home assessment is completed.
