Fiona Prior OT

I qualified as an occupational therapist in 2008, before practicing in a variety of settings and with an array of individuals each with their own unique challenges and abilities. In 2016, I decided to move into independent practice through the company Adaptive OT, and have specialised in working with individuals and organisations to find solutions for complex functional requirements and situations.

I carry out thorough assessments, then advise strategies, equipment and/or adaptations in collaboration with the client and those involved in their daily life, to achieve an improved quality of life for the individual. I provide interventions to resolve functional challenges, and to support and educate the client and those involved, ensuring recommendations are implemented appropriately for optimum benefit, as detailed in the assessment report. I work with clients in a variety of settings, including the individual's home and other relevant environments as required. I have acted as a second opinion to statutory or other private services, as well as writing reports to be used to support Personal Independence Payments (PIP) claims and Education Health and Care Plans (EHCPs). Often the solution is simple, but requires expertise and experience to identify and solve the challenge.

Testimonials: “Thank you very much for your report; really thorough and helpful as usual.” “Thank you for all your help and taking my stress calmly.” “Your recommendations are just what I needed to have the confidence to purchase these two big ticket items." “The client and his family were very impressed with you ... so well done!” “Thank you so very much for taking so much time and care ... to produce such a full accurate and very informative report.” “Thank you so much for your fabulous report. Your findings made a massive difference to [my son’s] EHCP, the tribunal outcome and the way I understand and treat my son. Really, thank you.”
