The Outpatient Occupational Therapy Team at Denver Health offers rehabilitation services focused on helping patients restore maximum functional ability to handle daily tasks after injury or disease has caused limitations. This includes establishing a therapy program to work on identified deficits with appropriate goals that might include improving strength and range of motion of the upper extremity after an injury or relearning independence with dressing or meal preparation after a stroke.
