OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY

Occupational Therapy services focus on addressing a range of cognitive, physical, and motor skill challenges to help individuals achieve greater independence and enhance their ability to engage fully in daily life. The primary goal of occupational therapy is to develop, recover, or maintain meaningful activities that support independence and improve quality of life.

Our services are carried out by highly trained Occupational Therapists (OTs) or Certified Occupational Therapist Assistants (COTAs), depending on the complexity and specific needs of each patient. Occupational therapy is offered in Cincinnati, Columbus, and Indianapolis.

At Summit Home Care, we prioritize collaboration, working closely with you, your family, and your physician to create and manage a personalized plan of care. This ensures your health goals are consistently evaluated and met with precision and care.
