Valley Regional offers both outpatient and inpatient Occupational Therapy services, with the goal of working with you to achieve a greater quality of life. Our Master’s level clinicians will work with you to create and achieve goals of increasing independence or efficiency with your daily activities. This may include basic skills such as eating, dressing, bathing, toileting, or meal preparation in order to live more independently at home. This may also include more complex skills of community access, returning to work, outdoor activities, and other important routines or hobbies.
Our occupational therapists are trained to address difficulties including (but not limited to) pain management, decreased strength, coordination problems, neurological disorders, low vision, cognition problems, sensation problems, lymphedema, and hand therapy.
