Emma Taylor MSc. Health Ergonomics
BSc. (Hons), Occupational Therapy
PG Cert. Learning and Teaching
PG Cert. Management and Leadership
I qualified in 1994 with a BSc (Hons) in Occupational Therapy and am still passionate about what I do. I have subsequently gained further qualifications that alongside my clinical experience ensures that I can offer the best service to my clients. My two main areas of expertise are housing, adaptations and equipment and vocational rehabilitation/occupational health & wellbeing.
Housing and adaptations: I am passionate about beautiful, accessible designs and so will work with the client on ensuring any adaptations reflect their needs both physically and emotionally. I also have experience in wheelchair accessible vehicles and driver adaptations, including high tech solutions.
For people with vocational needs, I will carry out comprehensive assessments and set a plan with them. This could be a vocational programme or a one off occupational health assessment to support an employee and employer with appropriate recommendations.
I also provide clinical supervision to occupational therapists working in public, private and charitable settings.
