My GP has asked the local OT people to visit me.

Can anyone tell me what I might expect from the visit?

I have mobility issues and difficulty walking and standing up.

They come, ask you questions, discuss ways you can adapt your actions to use equipment to perform simple, normal tasks and if possible, get you appropriate equipment.


It can be a bit sad when you realise how much you have been unable to do, but that wears off as you plan how you can cope better.




I liked my OT very much and she actually got me out of a top floor flat in an isolated hilly area into where I am now - after 17 years of being told there was nothing wrong with it and I was fine there So I now have a wetroom and a bathroom and everything that a new house should :J
