Aged Care
Occupational therapists through Aidaway OT are able to assist elderly clients within their home environments, residential facilities or other environments where services may be required. Our team is experienced, adaptable, and we enjoy working with the elderly population.
How is Occupational therapy relevant to the aged care population?
Occupational therapists within the aged care population work towards maintaining/optimising function and independence. Our knowledge is clinical by background and our services will typically consider things such as:
- How you manage daily living tasks such as bathing and walking.
- How you are navigating the home and community environments e.g. in context of safety.
- How are you and your support network managing clinical challenges such as memory impairment, psychological challenges, understanding specific conditions such as Dementia.
Our therapists are experienced in working with a range of conditions and we strive highly for a collaborative approach which is tailored to the individual and is able accommodate specific needs, as well as be as assistive as able for short and long-term benefit.
