NEUROLOGICAL OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY
How can a Neurological Occupational Therapist help me?
Our specialist neurological occupational therapist has extensive experience working with clients who have sustained a brain injury or other neurological diagnosis, as well as those who have physical, mental health or social difficulties.
We deliver a friendly, personalised, and professional service which includes individualised assessments and rehabilitation packages for adults, aiming to optimise a client’s independence and level of function.
To achieve our client’s goals we will:
- Complete a thorough personalised assessment and agree client-focused goals.
- Implement a therapy programme to maximise our client’s abilities; this may include expanding activity opportunities and focus on specific neurological techniques to address difficulties with cognitive, sensory, and motor skills.
- Teach support workers and family to implement the therapy programme effectively.
- Work with clients to develop compensatory strategies for organisational and planning problems.
- Teach independent living skills including personal care, domestic, and financial management.
- Enable a client to identify and carry out fulfilling leisure activities.
- Assess for and identify specialist equipment including mobility aids, vehicles, wheelchairs and artificial limbs and adaptive aids for the home environment.
- Assess for and recommend assistive technologies including environmental aids to promote independence.
