The ability to perform day-to-day tasks is an essential component of a satisfactory lifestyle. The Harrison Senior Living family of care communities understands this and incorporates this idea into the occupational therapy program provided at our communities.
As part of our continuum of rehabilitation services, Harrison Senior Living skilled occupational therapists have the understanding and expertise that have made our program vital in helping residents and local community members alike regain the highest possible quality of life.
Residential and Outpatient Occupational Therapy for All Ages
The occupational therapy services are available for any age or need. Our proven program has been carefully developed to help those on the rehabilitation path regain the skills they need to live their life as independently as possible.
Though the program is integrated as part of our assisted living and skilled nursing programs, we offer it to both our residents and citizens of the surrounding area. As an outpatient occupational therapy option, we’re able to provide care and service to all who need it.
At Harrison Senior Living, the goal of our occupational therapy program is to help individuals who are learning to re-adapt to their social and physical environment. Therapists enhance patient functionality through:
- Education and training in areas such as dressing, bathing, eating and grooming.
- Activities for memory, orientation and cognitive integration
- Adaptive techniques or equipment to overcome physical disabilities
- Strengthening and coordination exercises
- Exercises to reduce the effects of arthritis or other conditions to maintain normal joint movement

The speech and language therapists at Harrison Senior Living aid people in recovering speech, language, memory, and swallowing functions by addressing any dysfunctions directly.

Harrison Senior Living’s home healthcare services are available for routine ongoing needs, post-procedure care, rehabilitation, and short-term illnesses. Elderly adults who are aging in place with limited mobility or access to transportation can benefit from the convenience of receiving specialized care without having to leave home.
Home health care services provide the peace of mind that many independent seniors and their families appreciate without interfering in an individual’s personal autonomy. Seniors who receive home health care services are often able to remain safely in their own homes, which could be best for their quality of life or more cost-effective than a senior living community.
Harrison Home Health services are offered throughout Chester County, PA, and operate out of our Coatesville independent living community.
