Tasmanian Occupational Therapy Services were developed to meet the services needs of remote and regional Tasmania.

Located in Bicheno on Tasmania’s East Coast, Tas OT Services are an easy and accessible service to all East coast areas from Launceston to Hobart.

Occupational Therapy is a client-centred health profession concerned with promoting health and wellbeing through occupation. The primary goal of occupational therapy is to enable people to participate in the activities of everyday life.

Occupational therapists achieve this outcome by working with people and communities to enhance their ability to engage in the occupations they want to, need to, or are expected to do, or by modifying the occupation or the environment to better support their occupational engagement. (WFOT 2012)
