What a session looks like in Kota Bharu
First appointments for traumatic brain injury (ot) run about an hour, the OT watches the task that’s actually difficult (not a clinic-styled version of it), talks through history and goals, and writes a programme you can act on that same week. Follow-up sessions are usually shorter and tighter, 45 to 60 minutes, and the horizon is typically 6-12 weekly sessions before review.
For this specialty, the most useful work happens at home, the therapist needs to see the actual bathroom, desk, bed, or kitchen in play. Home visits to Kubang Kerian and nearby addresses are routine; clinic sessions are an option where equipment or splinting is involved.
Every session in Kota Bharu ends with a written home programme, specific activities to repeat between visits, with photos or short notes the carer or parent can follow. The therapist schedules progress reviews every 4 to 6 weeks and will loop in the school, workplace, or primary-care doctor where it helps. Receipts and progress notes are available on request for insurance, work-injury claims, or school-support documentation.
