WHAT IS OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY?

A specialist profession requiring a 4-year University qualification, OT’s work with injured, disabled, or delayed clients through the use of a variety of assessment tools and methods to assess function, dysfunction, and capacity. This is done in order to determine how a client will most benefit from assistance to perform daily tasks. These tasks can be related to activities of daily living (ADL’s), employment or leisure tasks.

Following assessment OT’s develop an intervention program to assist their client to perform these tasks. These interventions can include; assistive devices, alternative method training, skills development, education, and/or assisting to teach others how to effectively assist.
