In-Home Occupational Therapy & Functional Independence
Struggling with standard daily routines after an unexpected illness or joint injury? Our licensed occupational therapists help you modify your environment, recover essential fine motor skills, and regain complete household independence safely.
Adapting Your Daily Life for Safer, Easier Living
While physical therapy focuses heavily on overall lower-body mobility and walking mechanics, Occupational Therapy (OT) is entirely centered around functionality. Our therapists evaluate how well you can perform your occupations—which include the daily tasks of living, such as feeding yourself, buttoning clothes, safely getting into a shower, and using kitchen utensils.
Ketro Care Inc. provides structured, home-based occupational retraining. Rather than forcing you to struggle through structural layout barriers, our occupational therapy specialists introduce adaptive equipment tools, customized energy conservation approaches, and targeted cognitive strategies designed to match your physical limitations.
Functional Independence Pillars
Our occupational clinical focus helps clients overcome physical constraints using customized modifications, neuromuscular interventions, and tailored adaptive solutions.

- ADL Retraining: Specialized training to safely navigate self-care skills including bathing, hygiene maintenance, toileting, and self-feeding.
- Adaptive Equipment Training: Comprehensive coaching on using button hooks, sock assistants, long-handled sponges, and reachers to bypass physical limits.
- Home Safety Environmental Modifications: Authoritative recommendations for grab bar placements, non-slip surfaces, and lighting adjustments to eliminate structural dangers.
