Occupational therapists assess and treat individuals with sensorimotor challenges that interfere with their ability to participate in the activities they want and need to do in their everyday life.
Occupation is defined as a meaningful activity. Therefore, our therapeutic focus is on optimizing function and participation for persons experiencing motor incoordination, muscle weakness, feeding or sensory difficulties that are decreasing their independence in home, school, social or work environments.
Our team of occupational therapists can help children and adults with the following challenges:
- Eye-hand coordination problems affecting object manipulation and/or handwriting legibility.
- Self-help difficulties:
- dressing
- feeding
- cooking
- home management
- transfers
- personal safety
- Oral feeding:
- neuro-motor limitations
- sensory based limitations
- Adaptive equipment needs:
- bath/shower chairs
- feeding utensils
- home living supports
- Wheelchair/seating system evaluation and fitting.
- Environmental control or home accessibility needs.
- Upper extremity splints/orthotics.
