Occupational Therapy

Occupational Therapists help individuals achieve independence in their lives despite temporary or permanent disabilities. They work with people of all ages, who, because of physical development, social or emotional problems, needs specialized assistance to lead productive and satisfying lives.

The Occupational Therapy (OT) department at Southwest Memorial Hospital serves the needs of our community through outpatient services at 20 South Market in the Annex, inpatient services at the hospital and through the Home Health department.

Outpatient services specialize in patients with acute extremity disorders including a variety of traumatic orthopedic diagnoses, arthritis, and cumulative trauma such as carpal tunnel syndrome. Outpatient OT is also an integral part of the multidisciplinary team made up of OT/PT/St to address the needs of patients with neurological conditions such as stroke and traumatic brain injuries.
