Redesigning your autonomy in occupational therapy
In the field of neurological rehabilitation and/or musculoskeletal disorders, occupational therapy is there to maximize your potential for independence. We understand the unique challenges brought on by each accident, and pathology (neurological, chronic pain, etc.), and are dedicated to providing you with personalized, innovative care. Our commitment is to work with you to improve your quality of life and day-to-day functioning, while respecting your abilities and life aspirations.
Occupational therapy is a collaborative process involving you, your loved ones and the therapist. At the Neuro-Concept Center, the occupational therapist will assess your daily engagement and performance to establish a personalized plan to develop your functional abilities (ranging from the simple activities of your daily routine to more complex occupations).
Occupational therapy is unique in that it uses functional activities that are meaningful to each individual, to help improve each of your spheres of life (physical, cognitive, affective). We also use more analytical exercises and advanced techniques, such as functional electrical stimulation or robotic assistance, to help you achieve your specific goals.
Our approach is holistic, taking into account not only your physical challenges but also your emotional and social needs. Together, we explore practical solutions to make your daily life easier and increase your independence. We recognize that every rehabilitation journey is unique. Our team is committed to tailoring interventions to meet your specific needs, constantly seeking your adherence to the intervention plan.
Occupational therapy at Neuro-Concept can intervene on your person, your activities and your environment, offering you a range of interventions:
- Rehabilitation specific to neurological pathologies: stroke, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, etc.
- Hand and upper limb therapy: pain (complex regional pain syndrome), neuropathy, paretic hand, etc.
- Training and/or adaptation of all types of activities of daily living: transfers (bed to wheelchair, wheelchair to car), personal care, moving around in the community, home management, work, etc.
- Functional assessment of functioning in the living environment and evaluation of needs for adaptations to the living environment: technical aids, adaptations to a living area, home care for the elderly, etc.
- Evaluation and recommendations for wheelchair positioning (only if wheelchair is not covered by RAMQ). Please note that only public technical assistance services can recommend a wheelchair covered by RAMQ.
- Evaluation of access to paratransit on the bus, car parking sticker
- Interventions to maximize self-management of chronic pain in daily life. Chronic pain requires a specialized approach, which is why our therapists are certified in pain management and have years of experience in pain clinics. We offer tailor-made support to help you better understand and manage your pain, using proven methods to minimize its impact on your life.
Your occupational therapy journey is a continuous evolution, and we’re here to support every step forward, big or small. Our aim is to help you regain maximum independence and pleasure in the activities of daily living. Together, we work to redefine the limits of what’s possible and pave the way for a rewarding future.
