A stroke can change your life in an instant. Recovery doesn’t end at the hospital... it starts when everyday life, independence, and meaningful roles need to be rebuilt. That’s where occupational therapy makes the difference.
At Tayla Rodd Occupational Therapy we strive to help each client return to the meaningful occupations that matter most: morning routines, family time, work engagement, community participation. We work alongside you, your loved ones and your healthcare team in a holistic and empowering way.
Let’s look beyond simply “surviving” a stroke. Let’s focus on recovery that restores independence, dignity and full participation in life.
If you or someone you know has had a stroke and would benefit from a specialist occupational therapy approach — contact us today and let’s begin that meaningful journey together.

🛣️ Thinking of driving again after illness or injury?
It’s not just about getting back behind the wheel—it’s about doing it safely.

✅ Step 1: Get medical clearance
✅ Step 2: Book an office based assessment with a trained occupational therapist
✅ Step 3: Complete an on-road driving evaluation

Many people—patients, doctors, and therapists—don’t realise that fitness to drive needs a proper evaluation. That’s where Driver Fitness Coalition steps in.

We train OTs to assess driving ability safely and confidently.
