The neuro occupational therapy process

Assessment

The neurological occupational therapy process starts with a face to face or remote assessment. This may take the form of structured questioning, observation of a client completing an activity of daily living, a cognitive assessment and a mood screen. This helps to identify your strengths and weaknesses and areas of function that may be affected.

Rehabilitation

After assessment, I would work with a client to identify goals for treatment – goals that are meaningful and client centred. I may also complete an outcome measure in order to monitor progress and track improvement.

A treatment programme would be devised in order to meet the client’s specific needs.
