Occupational therapy works in a broad range of environments to helps people with disabilities and those with injury or other health problems to participate better in their chosen life activities. Working closely with physiotherapists, an Occupational Therapist would teach individuals to use particular movements (or compensate for a lack of movement) in day-to-day activities. They also help people adapt their environment (modify their home to prevent falls, for example) and train them to use specially-developed equipment (to access a computer, for instance).
