Occupational Therapy Treatment Programs

Clinic-Based Occupational Rehabilitation

An individualized daily treatment program focusing on physical reconditioning and increasing functional tolerances through work simulation. This program will maximize a client’s ability to return to specific employment or improve overall employability. Formerly called Work Hardening/Work Conditioning.

Additional features:

• Typically a 4–8 week program depending upon the client’s needs.
• Work hardening on-the-job is coordinated when available and appropriate.
• Programs are developed, coordinated, and supervised by an occupational therapist and a kinesiologist.
• The client must have a tolerance for two hours of activity, a willingness to return to work, and a defined treatment goal.
• Upon discharge, clients receive one free month membership to IOHS’ Fitness Centre.
