Occupational Therapy

The goal is to give individuals the “skills for the job of living” necessary for the highest level of independence possible, It is skilled treatment designed to enable people to do the day-to-day tasks that “occupy” their time. Occupational Therapists help people accomplish their daily living tasks, learn new skills, adapt to permanent losses, fulfill their life roles, and participate fully as possible in life.This is done by

• Treatment programs to improve one's ability to perform daily activities
• Performance skills assessment and treatment
• Adaptive equipment recommendations and usage training
• Guidance to family members and caregivers

Occupational therapy practitioners are skilled professionals whose education includes the study of human growth and development with specific emphasis on the social, emotional, and physiological effects of illness and injury.

The occupational therapist enters the field with a bachelor's, master's, or doctoral degree. The occupational therapy assistant generally earns an associate degree. Practitioners must complete supervised clinical internships in a variety of health care settings and pass a national examination. Most states also regulate occupational therapy practice.
