Positive Step Occupational therapists work with adults of all ages with a wide variety of conditions in the Perth Metropolitan area and surrounds. We work in a range of settings including your home, community, workplace, aged care facility or in hospital.
Positive Step occupational therapists are highly experienced and dedicated to service provision. We are different from everyone else because:
Examples of our assessment and interventions include comprehensive assessment of the environment (home/ workplace), recommendations for adaptive equipment and training in its use and education/ guidance for family members and carers.
Defining occupational therapy is a challenge because our goals reflect the lives and passions of our clients – we do a lot of everything! We help you to define your goals and we will work together to achieve them.
Occupational therapy is a health science degree-based profession, regulated by the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (APHRA). Occupational therapy takes a whole-person approach to both health and wellbeing, enabling individuals to achieve their full potential.
Occupational therapists help people participate in the things they want and need to do through the therapeutic use of everyday activities (occupations). These interventions help to increase people’s independence and satisfaction in all aspects of life.
“Occupation” refers to practical and purposeful activities that allow people to live independently and have a sense of identity. This could be an essential day-to-day task such as self-care (showering, dressing, preparing meals) work or leisure.
