OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY
Occupational Therapists work with people with a disability to increase their independence as well as their confidence with everyday activities.
This may involve helping them learn new ways or strategies to do things, getting out and about, or prescribing specialised equipment like wheelchairs or home modifications to ensure safety in their home and workplace.
At Favour and Care, our Occupational Therapists can make a big difference to how you live every day.
They’ll work out both your strengths and challenges and come up with solutions and strategies so you can do more things, as well as make everyday tasks easier.

What strategies and equipment can my Occupational Therapist recommend?
Everyone is different. This means the support you receive will be as individual as you and your circumstances!
Our Occupational Therapists will work with you to understand exactly what you want and need, and where you could use a bit of a helping hand. This could include:
- Exercises to improve your motor skills – so you are more in control of how your body moves.
- Everyday equipment – like grip supports to help you write, brush your teeth, get dressed, or eat
- Ways to improve hand-eye coordination – so your eyes and hands work better together when doing certain things like sport
- Specialized equipment – like wheelchairs, dressing aids, and supports for driving.
- Recommending other important therapies that you might need.
