April is National Occupational Therapy Month!National Occupational Therapy Month (NOTM) is hosted by the American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA) each April to recognize how occupational therapists and occupational therapy assistants help transform society by restoring and improving function in people's lives.
Occupational therapists help individuals across the lifespan achieve independence and participate in tasks they want and need to accomplish through therapeutic interventions following trauma or disability. This dedicated group of professionals focus on treatment to help develop, recover and maintain the daily skills of patients with specialized services and support. Occupational therapy enhances quality of life via wellness, productive aging, pediatric care, work health, mental health, resolving or adapting to impairments, teaching and research.
Join Select Physical Therapy as we celebrate these everyday heroes. Visit our Facebook, Twitter and Instagram platforms as we spotlight our occupational therapists throughout the month.

Happy #OTMonth!
