Bendigo Regional Occupational Therapy

The butterfly logo represents transformation. People coping with illness or disability face daily challenges to every aspect of their lives. Activities which most of us take for granted become difficult, tiring or impossible. Often their role in the family and community changes dramatically. When the focus of their lives is on medical issues and disability they may feel a loss of self-esteem and control.

Occupational Therapy offers an opportunity to empower the person and their family to focus on the positives. Enabling help is provided to promote ability, independence, control and quality of life. Problem-solving together and setting achievable goals may transform the life of the client in significant ways.
