Occupational Therapy

The Voyager HealthCare teams of occupational therapists help our clients learn to better perform activities of daily living. These activities include eating, bathing, grooming, dressing, toileting and walking/ambulating.

At Voyager HealthCare, occupational therapy is focused on helping clients reach their highest level of independence. Occupational therapy involves improving or restoring functions that have been impaired by illness or injury and affect a client’s ability to perform tasks required for independent living.

Occupational therapists can also help adapt the client’s home or work environment to make life safer and easier. They recommend grab bars in a bath or a ramp for a wheelchair, for example.

Problems frequently encountered that require occupational therapy include:

• Amputations
