Occupational Therapy Services work in the hospitals and community to assess and support adults and children to overcome functional problems and live as independently as possible.
This might include a range of interventions e.g. advice on conditions, information or help to problem solve a particular issue, arrange adaptations to a person’s home, school or work environment, or provide equipment to make everyday tasks possible. |
Referrals can be made by the individual, or with the individual's permission a referral can be made by a family member, neighbour or health professional. Please click here to view and print our referal form. Once completed send to the address below. |
If you wish to comment or complain about the OT service, a leaflet is available from the Western Isles NHS Board. However, the first step would be to contact the Departmental Manager to resolve any issues. If this is not possible information on the formal complaints procedure is readily available.
