Occupational Therapy

Whether you need to improve your muscle function, your ability to remain independent, or your sense of well-being, our occupational therapists, Michelle Bruegger, OTR/L, and Michelle DeRue, OTR/L, work with inpatients at Highland Hospital to help prepare them for their daily routines at home and at work.

We provide consultations, evaluations, and treatment in activities of daily living, such as:

  • Bathing, grooming, dressing, and homemaking
  • Adaptive equipment training for independence following joint reconstruction
  • Upper extremity and hand function
  • Splinting
  • Positioning and other treatments requiring occupational therapy
