Helping you go back to your normal way of living.
We understand the challenges most individuals face after recovering from a disability, injury, or illness. One of which is that they are having a hard time returning to their normal way of living due to their compromised strength. At MOG Home Health Care Services, our home care in Delaware County works with occupational therapists to determine what’s most important to the patient. Based on the patient’s goals, an occupational therapy program is designed to help the patient return to their regular daily activities.

What Our Occupational Therapy Services Include

Our occupational therapists can help you with the following:

  • Adaptive Equipment Training
    Clients are guided on how to properly use tools such as grabbers, mobility aids, dressing devices, and kitchen aids that promote safety and ease.
  • Assistance with Daily Living Activities (ADLs)
    Help is provided with essential tasks such as bathing, grooming, dressing, and feeding. Our goal is to restore independence in everyday routines.
  • Home Environment Safety Evaluation
    Therapists assess the home for hazards and recommend modifications like grab bars, lighting enhancements, and furniture adjustments to reduce fall risk.
  • Flexibility and Strengthening Exercises
    Customized routines are introduced to improve range of motion, reduce stiffness, and build muscle tone needed for practical movement.
  • Sensory and Motor Skill Development
    Fine motor coordination and cognitive processing are targeted through purposeful activities that enhance precision and mental sharpness.
  • Occupation-Based Activity Planning
    Activities are designed to mimic real-world tasks, like laundry, meal prep, or basic home tasks, so skills transfer directly into daily life.
  • Re-education in Basic Living Skills
    Clients receive step-by-step guidance to re-learn self-care tasks affected by physical limitations or cognitive decline.

Advantages of In-Home Occupational Therapy

  • Familiar and Functional Setting
    Therapy delivered in the home allows clients to work on real tasks in the exact environment they live in, making improvements immediately applicable.
  • Individualized Attention
    Each plan is tailored to the client’s priorities and needs — whether regaining handwriting skills, cooking again, or simply being able to get dressed independently.
  • Family Inclusion
    Caregivers and family members are involved in the care plan and trained on how to support progress between sessions.
  • Flexible Session Scheduling
    Appointments are planned around the individual’s comfort, rest patterns, and energy levels for maximum benefit.
  • Enhanced Confidence
    Small wins in everyday tasks can boost morale and create lasting independence, leading to a higher quality of life.
