The occupational therapist will help you reach your maximum potential and the highest quality of life possible by helping you manage everyday activities like bathing and dressing to the best of your ability. Since most of these activities are performed with our hands and five senses, treatment emphasizes arm strength and motion, hand coordination, orientation/memory and visual/perceptual skills. Special equipment can be provided if weakness continues. Arrangements can be made for the therapist to visit the home before discharge to make recommendations for accessibility and safety to benefit you and your family.
Coastal Rehabilitation Center maintains an independent living suite that allows you and your family the opportunity to practice modified techniques in a home-like environment.
