A Tricycle to Help Her Get Back to School
At Kabe Inclusive Public School, in the Logone-Birni Subdivision, the smiles on the students’ faces reflect their joy at seeing their 14-year-old classmate, Baya Abakar, receive a tricycle adapted to her needs.
Families and Caregivers Are Part of Rehabilitation
Rehabilitation is often more effective when patients receive appropriate support beyond the hospital.
Occupational therapists guide families and caregivers on assisting with daily activities, using adaptive equipment, making home environments safer and encouraging independence without doing everything for the patient.
Together, therapists, families and caregivers can help patients achieve meaningful progress.

An adverse event is a side effect that occurs on a child/subject after taking a vaccine. The most common adverse event following immunization in children include fever, and swelling of vaccine site.
Living Better With Chronic Conditions
Conditions such as arthritis, multiple sclerosis, cancer and HIV can affect energy levels, movement and daily functioning.
Occupational therapists help patients conserve energy, protect their joints, use assistive devices and adapt their home or work environments.
They also support individuals and caregivers in adjusting to changes in daily routines and responsibilities.
Living with a chronic condition does not mean giving up on independence.

Assistive Devices Make Daily Life Easier
Sometimes, the right tool or environmental adjustment can make a difficult task easier and safer.
Occupational therapists assess individual needs and recommend appropriate aids, appliances and home adaptations to support daily activities.
From modified utensils to specialised seating and other assistive devices, these solutions can help people participate more independently in everyday life.
The right support can open new possibilities.
