During the assessment, the Occupational Therapist will ask you a number of questions about your situation, areas of concern and goals for independence within your home.
As appropriate, the Occupational Therapist will also perform a functional assessment to evaluate your mobility, confidence and the level of difficulty you experience whilst performing daily tasks. This may include asking you to interact with your home environment i.e. standing from sitting, walking up stairs, stepping in and out of the shower etc.
Following this assessment, the Occupational Therapist will discuss your options and provide some general recommendations for home modifications, equipment and assistive technology if required. You will have the chance to ask questions to help you decide if you would like to progress any further.
