Occupational Therapy

At Los Care Homehealth Inc., our occupational therapy services are designed to help individuals regain the skills and confidence needed to live independently and safely at home. Whether recovering from illness, injury, or surgery, our licensed occupational therapists work one-on-one with each patient to improve their ability to perform essential daily tasks.

How Occupational Therapy Helps

Our occupational therapy services are centered around enhancing independence, safety, and comfort in everyday life. Here’s how we support our patients:

Building Independence in Daily Activities

These skills are vital for maintaining dignity and a sense of control over daily life.

To reduce risks and promote safe mobility within the home, therapy may include:

  • Balance and posture training

  • Safe techniques for moving around stairs, doorways, or uneven surfaces

  • Instruction and setup of assistive devices like grab bars, walkers, or transfer tools

Pain Relief & Joint Support

We offer practical solutions for individuals managing chronic pain or joint discomfort through:

  • Joint protection techniques to reduce strain

  • Use of supportive tools to ease physical stress

  • Gentle, guided exercises to maintain mobility and comfort
