Occupational Therapy (OT)

· Customized treatment programs to improve one's ability to perform daily activities
· Comprehensive home and job site evaluations with adaptation recommendations
· Performance skills assessments and treatment
· Adaptive equipment recommendations and usage training
· Guidance to family members and caregivers
