Occupational Therapists consider your strengths, abilities and physical and mental health care needs.
They find out what you want and need to be able to do and then consider if your environment (home, workplace etc.) supports or hinders your ability to do those things. They can then explore ways to make life easier and support you to manage daily tasks and activities within your abilities.
Occupations are any activity that we need, want or like to do to live and to look after our physical and mental health. They can be self-care, productive or leisure.
Primary Care OTs at your GP surgery offer short term, preventative and practical support to help you do the activities that matter to you.
