Occupational therapy (OT) is a health profession that helps people of all ages participate in daily activities or “occupations” that are meaningful to them. OTs support clients’ independence in self-care, work or play by adapting tasks and environments. In other words, OT promotes health and well-being by helping people do the things they need, want or are expected to do. We treat individuals across the lifespan – from infants and children with developmental needs to adults recovering from injury or managing chronic conditions.
