How Occupational Therapists treat patients

Occupational Therapists assess and treat patients with physical, mental or cognitive disorders to develop, recover or maintain self-care and community living skills. This includes helping patients achieve functional independence, adapt their environments, modify a task or learn new skills.

They also assist with:

  • Concussion management

  • Functional capacity evaluations for people needing cognitive assessments

  • Daily living difficulties related to cognitive challenges.

  • Assessments (cognition, function)

  • Education and adaptive strategies (including aids)
