I Love Hearing Your Questions

Your question may inspire a future Ask the O-Tee article or Home Matters newsletter—and it may help someone else who’s wondering about the very same thing. Ask about safety at home, maintaining independence, caregiving, everyday routines, home modifications, or simply something that isn’t working the way it used to.

If your question requires individualized occupational therapy services or medical advice, I’ll encourage you to seek the appropriate support..
