OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY
Customized care for your needs
With a unique focus on adapting environments, tools and ways of doing things, occupational therapy supports people with all levels of ability to engage in the things that are important to them.
From the basics of day-to-day living to participating in social interactions, from enjoying leisure activities to performing at work, occupational therapists (OTs) consider a person’s physical, cognitive and psychosocial functioning to help them achieve their goals. This wholistic lens comes with a client-centered approach, where the client determines the treatment goal and is an equal member of the rehabilitation team.
Our Occupational Therapy services focus on hand therapy, including custom splinting and the assessment & treatment of other upper extremity conditions that may affect the hand, wrist, elbow or shoulder. Visit our Upper Extremity Clinic page for more information.
We consistently communicate and collaborate with the other health professionals involved in your care and as long as you consent, we keep your family doctor informed of any findings, progress, or treatment recommendations.
If we feel you will be better treated or diagnosed by a different healthcare professional, we will not hesitate to refer you to ensure you receive the most appropriate care.
A referral from a physician is not necessary, however you may want to check with your private insurer to see if they require a physician's referral for reimbursement.
