Every year millions of people are temporarily or permanently disabled by birth defects, illness, or injury.  Timely, skilled help provided by OT Plus, Inc.'s occupational therapist and occupational therapy assistants ensures that the majority can live independent, productive and satisfying lives.

Providing disabled individuals with services they need means fewer days in hospitals and less dependence upon costly institutional care.  It means more people taking an active role in caring for their own health and depending less on the health care system.

Through skilled occupational therapy intervention, OT Plus helps individuals who have a physical or psychological disability learn to cope with their disability and become as independent as possible so that they can continue their work and personal lives, manage stress and fatigue, and participate fully in family and community life.
