Occupational Therapy and Rehabilitation
We, as occupational therapists, understand that an occupation goes beyond just work; it encompasses a wide range of activities that hold significant meaning and purpose for individuals. This can include vocational training, leisure pursuits, personal care tasks, and household chores. The ability to engage in these occupations is crucial for overall health and well-being. Our focus is on providing rehabilitation services tailored to address conditions such as stroke, brain injuries, and neurologic impairments. Through evidence-based treatments and clinical expertise, we assist patients in improving their functional abilities and enhancing their quality of life.
Functional rehabilitation, a cornerstone of occupational therapy, focuses on helping individuals regain independence in meaningful activities. Our team of skilled therapists works closely with patients to assess their specific challenges and develop a personalised program aimed at enhancing their independence in daily activities. This may involve modifying home environments, utilising specialised equipment for mobility and seating, and implementing targeted interventions to support the client’s journey towards improved function.
We provide specialised assessments and personalised treatments for individuals that are undergoing rehabilitation, occupational therapy, or dealing with neurological conditions. We take a holistic approach that considers the physical, psychological, social, and environmental needs of each patient. Our focus is on enhancing strengths, abilities, and healthcare requirements to improve functional skills and effectively manage daily activities.
Our collaborative approach with clients in this field of therapy involves a comprehensive assessment that addresses all aspects of rehabilitation. We utilise activities as therapeutic tools to problem-solve and enhance functional abilities, incorporating group work, environmental adaptations, and appropriate equipment usage. This holistic approach ensures tailored treatment plans that support neurorehabilitation goals effectively.
After a thorough assessment by our team of therapists, we identify and personalise the specific needs of each client and establish SMART goals. Occupational focused rehabilitation is used to help clients with neurological conditions regain and maintain independence in their daily activities at work, school, and other important areas. The effectiveness of our interventions is continuously evaluated through a cyclical process that includes assessment, planning, intervention, and evaluation stages.

To make clients feel as comfortable as possible, we offer home visits or arrange treatment at one of our community clinics at William Merritt Centre, Leeds, or a similar centre or location of your choice in your local community across the North West and Yorkshire, or we could arrange to see you at a suitable space within your community.
We appreciate our clients may have mobility restrictions and will always consider how to make consultations and treatments as convenient, time optimised and pain-free as possible. Community-based rehabilitation and integration back into the community is the key to any successful rehabilitation. Besides the benefit of a familiar environment and the discipline of following treatment plans within their own setting , community-based treatment enables the client to stay motivated while involving their family and friends.
