The Challenge
Ann was experiencing severe depression and was admitted to an acute mental health ward. Due to her low mood she was spending extended periods of time in bed. She was isolating herself and neglecting to attend to her self care.
The Change
The Occupational Therapist facilitated a 1:1 personal management session with Ann in her bedroom.
The Impact
When Ann was discharged from hospital she was very grateful for the input from the Occupational Therapy Team. She stated that she the most positive thing for her is that 'I can now make my own bed again'.
