Occupational TherapyOccupational Therapists use meaningful, purposeful therapies to help residents re-establish or increase independence in daily living. Areas of treatment include self care, home management, as well as performing leisure and communal activities. If required, the home environment is adapted to residents needs and training is provided in the use of adaptive equipment and orthotics, safety in the home, and care-giving. Sensory motor and neuromuscular functioning as well as visual and cognitive-perceptual components of performance are enhanced.
Speech Therapy Residents with communication and swallowing disorders benefit from working with our Speech Therapists. By improving speech patterns and providing instruction in the use of speech assisting devices, therapists enhance the ability to communicate with staff, family and friends. Our Speech Therapists also perform swallowing/dysphasia assessments and recommend specific diet choices and feeding strategies.
