Occupational Therapy Month

April is Occupational Therapy Month and Windom Area Health is honoring our Occupational Therapist, Nicole Sammons for her Dedication to Health. Occupational therapy practitioners enable people of all ages to live life to its fullest by helping them promote health, and prevent—or live better with—injury, illness, or disability. Occupational therapy practitioners have a holistic perspective, in which the focus is on adapting the environment to fit the person, and the person is an integral part of the therapy team.
