Assessment & Support of Activities of Daily Living
Occupational therapists focus on promoting health and wellbeing by enabling people to participate in the everyday occupations or activities of life.
These occupations can be broken into different categories:
Self-care activities including showering, dressing, sleeping and eating
Domestic activities such as preparing food, cleaning and doing laundry
Productive activities such as education, work, volunteering and caring for others
Leisure/social activities such as being part of a community group, engaging in a hobby, and being part of friendship groups
Instrumental activities such as financial planning, driving and medication management
Guide’s homecare occupational therapists conduct an initial interview, complete on-site observations and then relevant functional assessments to create an accurate picture of the person, their wants and desires. They can then implement methods that support their participation in occupations, including equipment prescription, home modifications, facilitate access to support services and rehabilitation programs.
