Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapy is designed to help patients with temporary or permanent loss of function regain independence and quality of life. Occupational therapists specialize in caring for people with physical, developmental or emotional challenges by helping them improve their ability to perform daily activities, as well as recommend ways for patients to adapt their environment to enhance independence. Therapists assist patients with everything from eating, bathing and dressing to using a computer, getting in and out of the car, or running errands.
Bayfront Health Brooksville's certified occupational therapists provide a full range of services, including:
-
Individual assessment of cognitive and physical abilities
-
Goal setting and planning to help patients overcome individual challenges
-
Outcome evaluation to determine that the goals are being met or to adjust the plan of care
At Bayfront Health Brooksville, our occupational therapists work closely with patients and family members in developing a care plan to ensure each patient's unique needs are being met, and that caregivers are well prepared to support patients in their recovery.
