What does an occupational therapist do for spinal cord injury?

Spinal Cord Injury (OT)

An OT retrains daily tasks like eating, dressing, and bathing based on your injury level. They recommend and fit wheelchairs, prescribe adaptive equipment, modify your home for access, and teach pressure relief techniques to prevent skin breakdown. OT focuses on maximising what you can do with the function you have.
