Occupational Therapy service

How Occupational Therapy could help you

Do you live with a disability? Do you struggle with daily tasks like, getting out of bed, climbing stairs, or bathing?

We may be able to help make things more accessible for you. We will carry out an assessment with you to find out if you need our services.

An assessment will:

• assess your needs at home
• look at what you can do
• find what makes tasks difficult for you
• discuss ways to improve your independence

We may offer:

• safer ways to do things
• appropriate equipment to help with activities, like raised toilet seats and bath lifts
• minor adaptations, like:
  • handrails
  • shower grab bars
• major adaptations, like:
  • doorway widening
  • wet room showers
  • wheelchair lifts
• referrals to other helpful services
• rehousing advice if it's the more appropriate long-term solution for you

Before requesting an assessment with us, it may be helpful to look at other options on our Other options available page.
