In celebration of #OccupationalTherapyMonth this April, we'd like to honor our Occupational Therapy departments across MedStar Health!  This year’s slogan provided by the American Occupational Therapy Association is “Occupational Therapy: Empowering Everyday Living.”

As the American Occupational Therapy Association states, “Occupational therapy is the only profession that helps people across the lifespan to do the things they want and need to do through the therapeutic use of daily activities (occupations). Occupational therapy practitioners enable people of all ages to live life to its fullest by helping them promote health, and prevent—or live better with—injury, illness, or disability. Occupational therapy practitioners have a holistic perspective, in which the focus is on adapting the environment and/or task to fit the person, and the person is an integral part of the therapy team. It is an evidence-based practice deeply rooted in science.” 

Join us in celebrating and thanking all of our occupational therapists for their impact on our patients and vital role within our healthcare system.
