Activity of Daily Living programs

Arc Rehabilitation Services offers occupational therapy services for people with a range of conditions including neurological, traumatic brain injury, musculoskeletal, congenital and degenerative conditions.

We provide detailed assessments comprising information about a person’s functional capacity and restrictions, and involve relevant family members and carers in the assessment process to ensure our assessment is as comprehensive as possible.  Our approach is based around setting goals for our clients to ensure they can achieve the best possible outcomes, and includes:

Assessment of function

  • personal/self-care
  • domestic activity including housework, yard duties and home maintenance
  • falls risk and prevention
  • community access
  • social interaction and communication skills
  • leisure and non-vocational participation

Assistance with participation in ADL (Activity of Daily Living):

  • training to overcome physical and/or cognitive barriers
  • selected aids and equipment
  • environmental modification
  • coordination of rehabilitation
