📢FAQ Friday!📢 OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY EDITION
Question: What exactly does an occupational therapist do?
The simplest way to put it: OTs help people do the things that matter to them. “Occupation” doesn’t just mean your job, it means every meaningful activity in your life: getting dressed, cooking a meal, writing, playing, driving, caring for your kids or grand kids. When an injury, illness, developmental delay, or aging makes those things harder, OT is there to step in and help. We assess what’s getting in the way — whether it’s strength, coordination, cognition, sensory processing, or the environment itself — and we build a plan to get you back to living fully.
