April is National Occupational Therapy Month!
An Occupational Therapist (OT) is a licensed healthcare professional who works with patients of all ages to develop, recover, or maintain the daily living and working skills needed for an independent, productive life. They treat individuals with physical, mental, or developmental conditions, using personalized therapeutic activities and environmental adaptations to help them perform everyday tasks.

- OTs work with patients to improve skills needed for daily tasks like dressing, eating, grooming, and working.
- OTs recommend and teach the use of specialized equipment, such as wheelchairs, eating aids, or splints.
- OTs assess homes, schools, or workplaces to suggest modifications—such as ramps or adjusted lighting—that make daily life easier.
