Occupational Therapy

Concierge occupational therapy is private pay, in-home occupational therapy scheduled around your family’s calendar. There is no homebound requirement and no set certification period, so care continues for as long as it’s helping, at the client’s home or their assisted living community. Occupational therapy focuses on the daily activities that make independent living possible: dressing, bathing, preparing meals, and moving safely through the home. Health Care Connectors provides concierge occupational therapy throughout Fairfield County, including Greenwich, Stamford, Darien, New Canaan, Westport, Norwalk, Wilton, Weston, Ridgefield, Fairfield, Trumbull, and Bridgeport.

What Happens During a Visit

Your occupational therapist begins with an evaluation of how you manage daily activities, along with an assessment of your home environment, your routines, and your goals. From there, each visit combines hands-on practice of daily tasks, strengthening and fine motor work, recommendations for adaptive equipment or simple home modifications, and education for family members or caregivers involved in daily support. Your plan is reviewed and adjusted at each visit as you progress.

Working Toward Your Goals

Clients use concierge occupational therapy to work toward the goals that matter to them, on their own timeline. Common goals include:

Dressing, bathing, and grooming independently
Preparing meals and managing the kitchen safely
Regaining hand strength and fine motor skills after surgery, injury, or stroke
Setting up the home to reduce fall risk and make daily routines easier
Managing daily activities with a condition such as arthritis, Parkinson’s disease, or multiple sclerosis
Building energy conservation strategies for daily tasks after an illness or hospital stay

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a physician referral for concierge occupational therapy?

No referral is required. Sessions can begin as soon as you’re ready.

Where do visits take place?

At the client’s home or their assisted living community.

How often can I schedule sessions?

As often as helpful. Sessions are scheduled directly with your family rather than set by a fixed program, and can continue for as long as they’re benefiting you.

Is concierge occupational therapy covered by insurance?

It’s a private pay service, billed directly rather than through insurance.

What is the difference between occupational therapy and physical therapy?

Physical therapy focuses on strength, balance, and movement. Occupational therapy focuses on the daily activities that depend on them, including dressing, bathing, cooking, and managing routines at home. Many clients benefit from both.
