An initial dementia & alzheimer’s (ot) session in Cameron Highlands is roughly an hour. The therapist watches the real activity, sets goals against the specific function you want back, and agrees the cadence, weekly at first, easing out as progress lands.
For this specialty, the most useful work happens at home, the therapist needs to see the actual bathroom, desk, bed, or kitchen in play. Home visits to Bertam Valley and nearby addresses are routine; clinic sessions are an option where equipment or splinting is involved.
