Wisconsin OT-reviewed home planning

Occupational therapist-reviewed stay-at-home planning in Wisconsin.

Share home photos, the routines that have become harder, and the help already available. When the situation can be understood from a distance, a Wisconsin-licensed occupational therapist helps put the next steps in order.

View sample plan

Begin with the moment that has become difficult.

Tell us what changed and where it shows up in the day. The first step is to separate what needs attention now, what can be made easier, and what calls for someone local to visit.

When to start

Small changes are often the first clue.

A fall or hospital stay should not have to be the beginning of the story. Earlier clues can show where a family needs more support.

A family needs occupational therapy-informed guidance but is not sure where to begin.

A home setup, transfer, bathing, toileting, stair, or entry concern is affecting daily life.

The family wants plain guidance before buying equipment or calling a contractor.

Remote review may help, but the family also needs to know when in-person care should come first.

What the plan covers

A short list, in the order it matters.

Gather guided home details, routine concerns, and photos of the rooms and paths that matter.

Review the situation through a Wisconsin occupational therapy lens and explain practical next steps.

Clarify when photos are enough for planning and when local in-person occupational therapy, physical therapy, medical care, or contractor review may be needed.

The questions families tend to carry alone.

What would an occupational therapist notice about this home setup?
Do we need grab bars, a shower chair, better lighting, railings, or a different routine?
When is remote guidance not enough?
What should family caregivers do differently this week?
