It is understood from the passage that occupational therapy ----.
Occupational therapy is a branch of medical care aiming
to improve the quality of life of patients through
occupational pursuits – helping them overcome
disabilities resulting from illness, injury or age so that
they can carry out the activities they need to perform in
order to lead healthy and fulfilling lives. This means both
giving them the means and mobility to pursue
occupations, and selecting activities that are therapeutic
to their particular condition. For example, a patient
learning to get around in a wheelchair might need
structural changes to their environment such as
widening of doorways and fitting of ramps as well as a
programme of physical exercise to build strength in their
arms and shoulders. Another patient, who has suffered
a stroke, might be encouraged to try arts and crafts as a
way to rebuild their manual dexterity skills. Occupational
therapy has a long history, dating back to the 1st century
BCE and the physicians of Ancient Greece. Today, it is
still applied as an effective method of medical care.
