What is an Occupational Therapy Functional Assessment?
An OT functional assessment is a comprehensive evaluation of your ability to perform daily activities. This includes a thorough analysis of physical, cognitive, and emotional abilities, as well as environmental factors that may impact your function.

- Cognitive Skills: Assessing memory, attention, problem-solving, and decision-making abilities.
- Emotional Well-being: Understanding the emotional and psychological factors that influence daily tasks.
- Environmental Factors: Analysing home and community environments to identify potential barriers and supports.
