Why choose outpatient OT at home
- Convenience. No travel required and or sitting in a waiting room.
- Private setting. Your home is a quiet, comfortable setting where privacy during your session is not a concern.
- Familiar environment. Therapy is completed in the place you live and spend majority of your time. Treatments are functional and meaningful.
- Personalized care. Our therapists are able to spend more time with you each session, therefore dramatically increasing the quality of therapy provided.
- Energy is saved for therapy sessions, not spent traveling to therapy sessions, which may hinder healing.
- Reduction of behavior concerns in those with dementia and slow functional decline.
Considerable evidence has been gathered showing that the personalized care you receive from in-home therapy boosts the healing process. Because patients are able to perform exercises or other therapy tasks in a stress-free environment with personal attention from a licensed professional, in-home therapy sessions can be more focused and intensive. By limiting distractions, you can concentrate more of your time on learning the techniques that you need to perform each day to help you to reach your goals.
