Our specialist team of Occupational Therapists offer bespoke care tailored to our patients’ specific needs.
Helping you live well with your illness
Our Occupational Therapists work closely with patients and their families to help achieve the best level of independence for as long as possible, focusing on activities that matter most. This could include everyday activities such as getting dressed, cooking a meal, going to the shops, or enjoying a coffee with friends.
By assessing individual needs, we can then offer advice about techniques to help manage changes in function and provide support with accessing assistive equipment to minimise the impact of symptoms on quality of life. Occupational Therapists can also offer advice on adapting a patient’s environment to help assist function and activities of daily living.
We often take the little things for granted – like being able to make a cup of tea or going for a walk to the shops. Supporting people to be able to do those things is so important – it helps maintain a sense of identity, improves wellbeing, and can make someone feel more in control of their illness."
