Daily tasks, equipment and home setup

Occupational Therapy

NVC Group Seniors Lifestyles provides occupational therapy support for older people who need practical help to manage daily activities at home. It looks at how the person, the task and the home environment work together, then identifies strategies, equipment or adjustments that may make everyday life safer and more manageable.
