Enhance Occupational Functioning: Hoarding Support Strategies Workshop
Hoarding behaviours present unique challenges for both individuals affected by it and the health professionals who support them. Occupational therapists play a crucial role in addressing the functional impairments associated with hoarding behaviors and helping individuals regain control over their living spaces and lives. This workshop aims to equip occupational therapists with comprehensive knowledge and practical strategies to effectively work with people experiencing hoarding difficulties.
By attending this workshop, occupational therapists will gain a deeper understanding of hoarding difficulties and learn evidence-based strategies to support individuals in achieving improved occupational functioning and quality of life. Through collaborative efforts and compassionate care, therapists can empower individuals to overcome the challenges associated with hoarding and reclaim control over their environments and lives.
