Occupational Therapy

Occupational Therapy

Occupational therapy plays a critical role in rehabilitation with the goal of returning the patient to as normal a life as possible. Our Occupational Therapy services are an excellent choice for those looking to recover, develop, and maintain their everyday skills. Sunshine-employed licensed occupational therapists create individualized plans to fit each resident’s needs and conditions. Therapists provide services 7 days a week so individuals can move closer toward independence.

Sunshine's Occupational Therapy Program

Many, but not all, of our patients, are elderly. Strokes, accidents, and injuries can happen at any age. Sunshine Health Facilities offers occupational rehabilitation for all ages in inpatient, long-term care, outpatient, or home care.
