Your occupational therapy career

As an occupational therapist (OT) you are an integral member of our team, playing a crucial role in improving the lives of people living with physical, mental, developmental, or emotional challenges. At the heart of your profession lies the commitment to empower patients to engage in meaningful activities and achieve optimal independence in their daily lives.

Role and responsibilities

As an occupational therapist, you work within a biopsychosocial model, which means you're equipped to address not only a person's immediate needs but also their long-term goals that bring purpose and meaning to life. With training in mental health, physical health, social care, and learning disabilities, you play a key role in assessment, treatment, and prevention, supporting overall health and quality of life. You're also a strong advocate for individual wellbeing.

Your work may be in inpatient settings or community-based services. You begin by understanding who a person is and what they need, then provide tailored support, whether that's helping others understand someone's social needs or engaging individuals in activities that build skills for daily life. You also help address challenges related to fine motor skills, sensory processing, and social-emotional development, all with the aim of helping people to achieve independence in their lives.
