Occupational therapy services

Part of: Equipment and adaptations

The occupational therapy service helps people who have physical disabilities to live as independently as possible and helps their carers and families to care for them safely. The occupational therapist works with you to identify how your disability is affecting your ability to carry out daily tasks such as getting on and off the toilet or getting up and down the stairs.

How we can help you

Contact us if you need help and support to regain your independence and improve your ability to perform daily activities after an injury, illness or disability.

Following an assessment, we will discuss the options with you giving you choice and control over the services you receive.

We can offer information and advice regarding alternative ways of carrying out activities independently. If your needs can be met with simple equipment and minor adaptations, these can usually be prescribed. If necessary, we can recommend major adaptations for your home.
