Occupational Therapy Services

Occupational Therapy (OT) enables people to become as independent as possible in their daily living activities at home, at work and in leisure pursuits.

 

At Ability Matters, we stock a range of mobility and daily living aids to facilitate  independence when engaging in your everyday activities.

 

Our Occupational Therapist works with each individual to optimise their quality of life by:

  • Assessing their functional capacity, home environment and individual needs.
  • Facilitating the selection of mobility and everyday living aids that suit the individual’s lifestyle.
  • Educating the individual in the use and maintenance of these aids.
