The goal of occupational therapy is to enable patients to fully participate in the activities of everyday life despite an illness, injury, cognitive impairment, developmental or learning disability. Developing, improving, or restoring daily living skills such as self-dressing, self-feeding, and independently accomplishing personal hygiene; interacting with others; or becoming work ready are among functional outcomes sought for patient through the use of purposeful activity or interventions.
