What does an occupational therapist do?

The occupational therapist can provide you with advice and equipment to improve how you:
- complete chair, bed or toilet transfers
- access your property
- mobilise on the stairs
- prepare drinks, meals and snacks
- access your current bathing facilities
The assessment may also cover:
