About

RehabWorksheets was created by a practicing occupational therapist with over a decade of experience supporting adults after traumatic brain injury and stroke. The same problem came up again and again in that work: formal assessments and treatment programs were easy to find, but the day-to-day materials were not. There was a real shortage of well-made activities that could be used for ongoing cognitive stimulation.

Most of what did exist shared the same problems. Worksheets were one-off rather than part of a progression, instructions were vague, layouts were cluttered, and many were adapted from children's material with the artwork changed. Adult-appropriate design matters a great deal here, and it is easy to get wrong.

What we make

Every set here is built around three ideas.

  • Graded difficulty. Tasks come in progressions, typically basic through complex, so the same familiar format can stay appropriately challenging as performance changes. A single worksheet is rarely as useful as a set that can grow with the person.
  • Adult-appropriate design. Clean layouts, readable type, realistic imagery, and no visual clutter. Materials that respect the person using them.
  • Clear instructions. Each page explains itself, so it works whether a therapist is guiding the session or a family member is sitting at the kitchen table.

The catalogue covers attention, memory, executive function and reasoning, visual perception, and dementia and memory care, alongside printed kits for hands-on practice with tasks like medication and money management.

Free worksheets and interactive tools

A free printable worksheet is published alongside most sets, with notes on how the task works and how to grade it up or down. You can browse those in Free worksheets, and no email address is required to download anything.

There is also a companion site, tools.rehabworksheets.com, with interactive versions of several tasks that run in a browser on any device. Nothing to print, free to try.

An important note on scope

These are cognitive stimulation and educational materials. They are not standardized assessments, they are not diagnostic tools, and they are not a substitute for treatment. No therapeutic outcomes are claimed. Some worksheets take their format from well-known clinical tasks, and where that is the case the article for that worksheet says so plainly and points to the original source. If you have concerns about your own memory or a loved one's, please speak with a physician.

No patient data is collected anywhere on this site or on the tools site.
