Occupational Therapy Services at Redwood Memorial Hospital

In some instances, people will suffer debilitating injuries, illnesses, or other types of disabilities that could make even the most mundane of daily living activities incredibly difficult. For some victims, an injury could make getting dressed or eating a difficult – or impossible – task. It is in these types of medical scenarios that our professional and Board Certified Occupational Therapists can be of assistance.

What is occupational therapy?

Occupational therapy enables people of all ages to live life to its fullest extent. Our occupational therapy program allows our patients to fully recover from all sorts of debilitations. By promoting greater health and preventing future injury, our patients can live a better quality of life despite an injury, illness or disability.

Our occupational therapists work with patients to help them learn the skills and adaptations that are necessary to regain function and satisfaction in the home, within the workplace, and within the community.

By learning how to work with an injury – not around one – you can begin to make small steps toward ultimate recovery and reclaiming control of your life. Our therapists will be at your side throughout your entire journey to rehabilitation, making certain you are aware of all stages of your development and progression.

Focusing on Helping Patients in Our Community

Our highly trained occupational therapists at Redwood Memorial Hospital staff acute units, intensive care professionals, as well as inpatient rehabilitation units and an outpatient rehabilitation clinic.

No matter what you are currently suffering with, we have the staff and medical resources to treat your injury properly and cost-efficiently. In addition to our outpatient occupational therapy unit, we also offer physical therapy and speech therapy services.

Customized Solutions for Every Patient

When working with an occupational therapy practitioner, strategies, and modifications are customized for each individual to resolve problems, improve function, and support everyday living activities. Through these therapeutic approaches, occupational therapy helps individuals design their lives, develop needed skills, adjust their environments (including home, school, work, or the community) and build health-promoting habits and routines that will allow patients to thrive.
