Occupational therapy treatments can help with aging in place by promoting independence and safety. Aging in place means that an individual makes a conscious decision to live in the residence of their choice for as long as they can with the comforts that are important to them. As they age, adding supplementary services to facilitate their living conditions and maintain their quality of life may be necessary.
Lymphedema is a stagnation of lymph fluid yielding a swelling in a portion of the body. If left untreated, the collection of protein-rich fluid provides a culture rich for infection and inflammatory processes. Reduced oxygen transport then decreases healing to compromised tissues and wounds.
A doctor’s referral is required to be seen by an occupational therapist. If you or a loved one would benefit from occupational therapy services, contact your primary care provider.
