What we do
Sonder Healthcare is a small group of highly qualified healthcare professionals. We strive to ensure the unique experiences and needs of our clients are understood, and that intervention is provided in a personal, comprehensive and holistic manner.
We are currently focused on delivering an outstanding occupational therapy service to clients living in residential facilities, and their own homes, in the greater Dublin area. Our main areas of expertise are reablement/rehabilitation, housing adaptations, and seating/wheelchair assessment and prescription. Adjunctive healthcare services (such as nursing, physiotherapy, and speech and language therapy) are also available when required.
Person-centred practice is what we do.
