Occupational Therapy

If you have more complex needs, you may benefit from having an assessment from the Occupational Therapy (OT) service.

Occupational therapists help people of all ages overcome the effects of disability caused by illness, ageing or accident so that they can carry out everyday tasks or occupations. 

The OT service can also advise on appropriate equipment and adaptations to suit your individual needs so that you can live at home safely and independently. There is a wide range of equipment available from us.

For more information and guidance including how to ask for an OT assessment, visit the equipment to help at home pages and maintaining or adapting your home pages on People First.
