What Do Our
Occupational Therapy Services Entail?

Occupational therapy services and care plans are individualized to each of our patients. While some patients may need acute services while recovering from an injury, others may need more consistent care plans for their needs. We assess, diagnose and treat our patients to help improve their fine motor, play, sensory, and everyday living skills.

We help patients with processing disorders, autism, mental health or behavioral problems, birth injuries or defects, burns, and more. Our services are geared towards helping our patients perform individual tasks on their own, like:

Frequently Asked Questions

What is occupational therapy, and who can benefit from it?

Occupational therapy helps individuals develop, recover, or maintain daily living and work skills. It benefits people of all ages who have physical, sensory, or cognitive challenges that impact their ability to perform everyday activities.

Can occupational therapy help with sensory processing disorders?

Yes, occupational therapy is effective in managing sensory processing disorders by helping individuals respond appropriately to sensory stimuli. Therapists use specific techniques to improve sensory integration and coping strategies.

Can occupational therapy help adults and seniors?

Yes, occupational therapy can be highly beneficial for adults and seniors dealing with injury recovery, chronic conditions like arthritis or stroke, or cognitive changes due to aging. Therapy focuses on restoring independence in daily activities such as dressing, cooking, or managing medications, and may include home safety assessments, adaptive strategies, and strength or coordination exercises.

How does occupational therapy assist children?

For children, occupational therapy focuses on enhancing fine motor skills, improving hand-eye coordination, and developing daily living skills like dressing and feeding. Therapy also addresses sensory processing issues and social skills development.

What should I expect during an occupational therapy session?

During a session, the therapist will assess the individual’s abilities and challenges, then engage them in activities designed to improve specific skills. This may include exercises for strength and coordination, practicing daily tasks, and using adaptive equipment if necessary.

How do I know if my child needs occupational therapy?

Indicators that a child may benefit from occupational therapy include difficulty with fine motor tasks (like writing or buttoning clothes), challenges in coordination, sensory sensitivities, or delays in achieving developmental milestones. An occupational therapist can provide a comprehensive evaluation.
