With over 20 years of experience, PMC's Occupational Therapy Department treats patients in Long term Care, Acute Care,
Home Health and the Out-patient setting. Treatment plans are customized to the individual and their specific diagnoses.
The goal of Occupational Therapy is to achieve independence and improve arm/hand strength and function while limiting
the degree of interruption to one's life when affected by disability, injury or chronic conditions.
Our
department background is strong in hand injury treatment and ergonomic (work-related) issues as well. Splinting is one
of our most impressive treatments. Most of our splints are custom-fabricated and specific to hand and wrist injuries.
We are quite versatile and have a strong reputation with our local and regional physicians.
The variety of diagnoses
that benefit from Occupational Therapy are widespread.
Examples include:
ADLs (activities of daily living)
including dressing
Adaptive equipment following a stroke or fracture
Work related injuries including repetitive
motion injuries like carpal tunnel
Arthritis joint protection
Work simplification
Fibromyalgia
Sports
injuries
Head/spinal cord injuries.
