Occupational therapists help their patients engage in the activities they
want and need to do, no matter what injury, illness, condition, disability,
lifestyle, or environment stands in their way. These everyday human activities
are what we call “occupations,” and they are the building
blocks of our physical, psychological, emotional, and spiritual health.
Occupational therapists help people perform, modify, or adapt their skills
and activities in order to live healthier, happier, and more productive lives.
