About Therapy Solutions

The following are typical scenarios that Therapy Solutions can help with:

ALICE

Alice lives in a nursing home. She no longer making gains in her therapy and will be discharged from service. She is no longer eligible for Medicare OT/PT and you fear a quick decline in physical participation in activities of daily life (ADL) once discharged from therapy.

As expected, Alice seems to become weaker and has increasing difficulty getting dressed, eating, and managing bathing and toileting routines.

How Therapy Solutions Helps
Therapy Solutions will design an exercise program so the Alice can maintain her strength, coordination and endurance for ADL activities. Therapy Solutions will consult with nursing staff on how to best engage Alice in ADLs to maximize her participation based on her strengths and skills, as well has recommend adaptations in routines and equipment.

HENRY

Henry used to email his large family his favorite jokes on a regular basis. This kept him connected to his loved ones and in good cheer.  Since macular degeneration has begun to take his central vision away,  Henry has trouble reading and is becoming depressed.   His emails and connections to his family are diminishing. 

How Therapy Solutions Helps
Therapy Solutions can set up Henry's computer to accommodate his vision loss, as well as install software that would read his emails to him. 

BOBBY - Pediatric Patient

Bobby has multiple health issues and developmental disabilities.  He receives OT at school related to his academic performance but his parents would like help with ADLs at home. 

How Therapy Solutions Helps
Therapy Solutions will evaluate Bobby's home program and routines, use a variety of therapy techniques to improve Bobby's participation in his home activities, and consult with his parents and school staff to coordinate and maximize his participation in both school and home activities.
