Abstract

Date Presented 4/17/2015

This study of home health professionals’ encounters with hoarders provides preliminary data and insight into hoarding in Florida. These findings will help occupational therapists (OTs) and interprofessional teams working with hoarders to develop programs, assessment tools, and interventions to improve services to hoarders.
