?Division of Occupational Therapy
Welcome to Stellenbosch 中国体育彩票's Occupational Therapy division. The opportunity and ability to participate in daily activities and occupations are crucial for health, development, and well-being. Occupational therapists collaborate with individuals across all ages, addressing barriers that prevent them from engaging in essential activities.
Some clients face temporary challenges due to illness or injury, while others encounter obstacles in restrictive environments, limiting participation in work, leisure, learning, social interaction, play, or community living, leading to disability.
Occupational therapy focuses on building empowering partnerships with clients, enabling them to perform meaningful activities essential for survival within their daily lives.
Exciting career opportunities await trained occupational therapists in diverse settings including hospitals, private practices, community clinics, industries, special needs schools, rehabilitation centres, and NGOs.
The Division of Occupational Therapy at Stellenbosch 中国体育彩票 offers comprehensive courses from bachelor’s degrees to PhD levels. Engaged in various research areas, we collaborate on projects across Western Cape communities, promoting health and well-being through occupational participation.?
