Occupational Therapy

The goal of Occupational Therapy is to enable an individual to carry out their activities of daily living (which include those performed at work, at home, in school, or in the community) as independently as possible.

Patients seeking our services will first undergo an assessment of physical function, cognitive skills, and daily living skills. Following the thorough evaluation with one of our trained professionals, an Occupational Therapist will tailor a treatment plan dedicated to restoring your maximum functional ability.

Inpatient Services:

  • Functional Retraining
  • Neuro-Rehabilitation
  • Orthopedics
  • Hand Therapy
  • Splinting, Bracing, and Other Adaptive Equipment

  • Increase safety awareness
