Canterbury Aged Care Occupational Therapy Industry Leaders
Occupational therapy (OT) can assist seniors to regain their confidence, abilities and self-reliance after ill health or an injury, or if they have a disability. As people age, they can find it increasingly harder to maintain their independence and to continue enjoying the activities they once did. Occupational therapy can provide much-needed value and assistance.
The goal of OT is to get the best fit between the you as the person, the activity and the environment that you perform that activity.
Some of the health conditions that a Physio Inq Aged Care Occupational Therapist can help with include arthritic conditions, stroke, Parkinson’s and dementia.
Whether the session is completed in your home, hospitals, aged care facilities or retirement villages our Occupational Therapists can come directly to where ever you want them. This removes the trauma and difficulty of having to travel to appointments, meaning our seniors can get the care they need easily.
