This means that occupational therapy can provide tremendous help and relief to patients suffering from physical conditions (such as arthritis, for example) and mental/cognitive conditions (such as dementia and Alzheimer’s).

The goal of occupational therapy is to aid the client in recuperating
so that he or she can live a fuller and happier life.

Why Occupational Therapy for Seniors is Beneficial

There are many reasons why occupational therapy for seniors is so beneficial. Here are a few:
  • First and foremost, it allows elderly patients to overcome many daily challenges that they may be facing, like dressing and feeding themselves, for example. It empowers them to be more independent and, in turn, this helps to increase the amount of time that they will be able to live at home.
  • Occupational therapy is also known for preventing falls, which can lead to painful injuries and lengthy hospital stays. Occupational therapy teaches the elderly how they can remain active without putting themselves at risk of a tumble, and how to navigate their home more safely and mindfully.
  • Occupational therapists are also trained to scope out an individual’s home and look for opportunities in terms of how to improve it so that their patient can live more comfortably and conveniently.
  • Furthermore, they also work hand-in-hand with their patient’s caregiver in an effort to help the caregiver make better, more informed decisions about the patient’s daily care.
  • Finally, occupational therapists provide better health and wellness by aiding an elderly person in developing a more positive mindset and leading a fuller life. This positive mental change can work wonders in terms of a patient’s physical health too!
