Occupational Therapy

AnMed’s occupational therapists can help you build or regain skills for daily life. These skills can include eating, dressing, bathing, driving, preparing meals and other activities. We’re here to help you reach your goals and your highest level of independence. 

AnMed Occupational Therapy Services

Our therapeutic services focus on your specific goals and may include:

  • Hand therapy 
  • Instruction in use of adaptive equipment 
  • Injury prevention techniques
  • Home health services

AnMed OT services are available in the hospital and on an outpatient basis at AnMed Orthopedics and Sports Medicine and AnMed Therapy – Pediatrics, both in Anderson.

Hand Therapy

AnMed’s hand therapists treat arm, wrist, elbow and shoulder conditions. These professionals have extra training in caring for these complex parts of the body to restore range of motion and reduce pain. Our hand therapists will work closely with you and your doctor to ensure the best possible recovery.

What to Expect 

Once your doctor has referred you for occupational therapy, our OT specialists will meet with you to evaluate your specific needs and understand your goals for improvement. We’ll then develop a therapy program and schedule to help you meet those goals. 

At each therapy session, one or more of our specially trained therapists will work directly with you. This may include special exercises, equipment and training to use the equipment for daily tasks. 
 

Start Your Recovery

Ask your doctor for a referral to AnMed occupational therapy. After we receive the referral, we’ll call you to make an appointment.
