I was a bit sceptical at first but they were amazing!

About: Community Occupational Therapy / Glenrothes & Cowdenbeath

(as the patient),

I had the occupational therapist out to see what help they could give me in my home.

They were amazing! I was a bit sceptical at first I didn’t think I needed them just yet, but I was convinced to try them, with what I told them what my difficulties were and they suggested: a bed riser, a bath lift,  a chair for helping with my hose work, and a commode.

I have tried them all apart from the commode yet. The bed riser is a god send, helps me no end! Also the bath riser, I am not shattered getting in and out the bath. The wee chair is angled to help me when I’m cooking or washing up.

Brilliant thank you so much Caroline and team xx
