Neurological OT
Occupational therapy for people living with stroke, Parkinson's, MS and other neurological conditions, focused on daily activities and function at home.
This is a specialist service offered where your local occupational therapist's training and scope of practice cover it — check availability for your area on the county page.
What it is
Neurological occupational therapy supports people living with the day-to-day impact of stroke, Parkinson's, multiple sclerosis and other neurological conditions — things like fatigue, changes in movement or coordination, and the routines that make up daily life. The focus stays on function: what you want or need to do, and how to do it safely and sustainably.
Who it helps
- People living with the effects of stroke, Parkinson's, MS or other neurological conditions
- Those managing fatigue that affects everyday activities
- People working on upper limb function for tasks like dressing, eating or writing
- Anyone wanting practical strategies for memory, routine or cognitive changes that affect daily life
What a home visit involves
- An assessment of the daily activities that matter most to you
- Looking at fatigue, movement, upper limb use and routines together, not in isolation
- Practical strategies and, where relevant, equipment recommendations
- A plan you can build on over time, reviewed as your needs change
What this can achieve
- A clearer, more manageable daily routine
- Practical strategies for fatigue and energy management
- Greater independence in specific activities that matter to you
- Confidence that your home and equipment genuinely support you

Frequently asked questions
Who carries out the Neurological OT visit?
A qualified, HCPC-registered occupational therapist covering your area carries out the assessment and any follow-up visits in person, at your home.
How is Neurological OT priced?
Your occupational therapist confirms their fee for Neurological OT before you book — see our prices page for current guide pricing.
Will I get anything in writing?
Where relevant, you'll receive a written summary or report of the visit, agreed with you at the outset — particularly for equipment recommendations, adaptations or reports for a third party.
What happens after the first visit?
Your occupational therapist will agree next steps with you directly — this might be a follow-up visit, a set of recommendations to action yourself, or referral on if something falls outside their scope.
