Q. When should you consult an occupational therapist? A. When you are having difficulty accomplishing activities at home (or at work or play). You may have a physical limitation such as: arthritis, diabetes, low vision or hearing or an injury, that is affecting your ability to accomplish activities independently. Occupational Therapists are problem solvers. We look at how the person, the activity and the environment interact to support or impede an individual's function; and determine how to maintain or gain independence and ability. Our intervention strategies include education, recommending different ways of doing an activity and/or prescribing assistive devices or mobility aids. We are client-centred and collaborative and our focus is on maintaining independence.
