How Occupational Therapists Can Help
Occupational therapists could help with, or provide information about:
- Enabling an individual to remain in their home through a programme of rehabilitation
- Raising the height of the bed/chair so that standing is much easier if a person has stiff, painful hips and knees
- Making a home safer for getting around by the installation, for instance, of hand rails and ramps
- Reducing anxiety and helping people raise their confidence about getting around or manage their disability
- Ways of obtaining appropriate support and helping people to connect to other relevant agencies
- Assisting carers to continue to maintain their caring responsibilities
If you want to fund your own equipment or adaptations, advice and information is available by contacting us using the details on the right.
