Occupational Therapy
The
Occupational Therapy Department is one of the departments in St. Mary's
Rehabilitation Department. The Occupational Therapy staff works with patients of
all ages to obtain full potential in fine motor skills. Many of the patients of
the Occupational Therapy department have suffered a stroke or head injury and
need help in relearning daily activities such as how to feed themselves, brush
their teeth and hair, and how to write. A variety of techniques are used to
assist the patient in their recovery.
St. Mary's Occupational Therapy Department is located on the fourth floor of the North Building.
An apartment-like setting
benefits those who face the challenge of re-learning activities of daily living
after an injury, illness, or surgery. Large windows provide an open view of
Griffin Park and the Missouri River. Access to this department can be gained
from St. Mary's main entrance/lobby. Patient/visitor parking is available in the
north parking lot between St. Mary's and Sioux Avenue, on Dakota Avenue, and
other surrounding parking lots and streets.
