Many of us take our independence for granted, comfortably performing all kinds of tasks and activities at home, school, work and in the community. For someone with an injury, illness, disability or psychosocial issues, it can be a different story. A qualified Occupational Therapist, or OT, can make a difference to that persons restricted lifestyle. An OT helps people of all ages to develop, sustain, or restore participation in their day to day activities and improve their quality of life. If youre a good communicator and a creative thinker with an interest in science, this might be the career for you.
