Information Sharing
Occupational therapists have training and knowledge in physical and psychosocial development and disorders and therefore look at the whole person, not just the physical aspects of the person’s problem.
An OT will explore a person’s individual strengths and needs, their environment and the tasks they wish to perform and are concerned with supporting, enhancing and maximising an individual’s potential and functional ability.
