If you are having problems living safely and independently in your home, a home visit by one of our occupational therapists can help to identify any problems and barriers you might have. We can provide recommendations on how to help you to function more safely and independently. This can be by providing options for new ways of doing things or recommending equipment or services/supports to provide you with the assistance you need.
Regular reassessments of your functional status will help to ensure that as you age or adjust to changes in medical status, that support and assistance are always close at hand.
If you are currently in hospital, we can work with your inpatient team to ensure that all the necessary equipment and supports are in place for your safe discharge home. We can then follow up with you as you transition back to community living. This might include looking at things such as grocery shopping, using transit services and/or participation in leisure activities.
