Overview

Occupational Therapy (OT) helps people across the lifespan to do the things they want and need to do, through the therapeutic use of daily activities. In our psychiatric and rehabilitation setting, OT focuses on enabling people with physical, cognitive or psychiatric conditions to develop, recover, or maintain the skills needed for daily living and working. For children, 'occupations' include learning, playing and socialising. For adults, it includes work, self-care and community participation.

Signs you may need this service

  • Difficulty with daily tasks like dressing, eating or personal hygiene.
  • In children — struggles with fine motor (holding a pencil) or gross motor skills.
  • Extreme sensitivity or under-reactivity to sounds, textures or lights.
  • Challenges with memory, organisation or problem-solving in daily routines.
  • Loss of functional independence following illness or injury.

Who can benefit?

  • Children with developmental delays, autism or ADHD needing sensory integration.
  • Adults recovering from strokes or traumatic brain injuries.
  • Individuals with severe psychiatric conditions needing help with daily living skills.
  • Patients needing rehabilitation to return to work or independent living.
