Occupational Therapy and Vocational Rehabilitation Services
Ability Occupational Therapy provide solutions that enable employees to remain in work or return to work after injury, illness or long-term disability.
Occupational Therapists adopt a ‘whole person’ approach. We are trained to assess and treat physical conditions, mental health, and cognition and focus on how these impairments impact participation in daily life, including work. Environment assessment and task analysis are core skills of an Occupational Therapist. This unique skill-set is invaluable in completing a comprehensive vocational assessment that considers ALL factors which may be affecting an employee’s ability to do their job.
Employee safety at work remains at the forefront of all workplace assessments and throughout the provision of vocational rehabilitation services.
