Occupational therapists provide cost effective solutions for mental health services

Occupational therapists help service users with poor mental heath with the following:
– Managing self care
– Continuing to work
– Accessing services

Occupational therapists are recognised as one of the five key professions successfully assisting in the recovery of those with mental health problems. By using their specialist expertise, occupational therapists can carry out multi factorial assessments to establish the functional implications of a service user’s mental health problems. They can then offer occupational therapy interventions that grade activities to ensure successful rehabilitation and recovery.
