Who Are These Opportunities Ideal For?

  • Licensed Washington Certified Occupational Therapy Assistants
  • COTAs relocating to Washington
  • Recent graduates from accredited OTA programs pursuing Washington licensure
  • COTAs seeking experience in SNF, ALF, retirement communities, hospital-based rehab, outpatient, pediatric, home health, or mixed-setting rehabilitation roles

This role is specific to licensed Certified Occupational Therapy Assistants practicing within a rehabilitation department. This is not a CNA, nursing assistant, medical assistant, therapy aide, or non-licensed support role.

  • Full benefits (medical, dental, vision)
  • 401(k)

Clinical Responsibilities

  • Implement treatment plans under the direction of a licensed Occupational Therapist (OT)
  • Deliver high-quality occupational therapy services in a rehabilitation setting
  • Assist patients with ADLs, functional skills, safety, and independence
  • Document patient care in EMR systems per state, federal, and facility standards
  • Collaborate with OTs, rehab staff, nursing teams, and interdisciplinary care providers

Required Qualifications

  • Graduate of an accredited Occupational Therapy Assistant (OTA) program
  • Active Washington COTA license, or eligibility/pending licensure
  • Ability to work full-time in one of the listed Washington markets
  • Authorized to work in the United States

Why Interview Through Relient Health?

  • Reliant Health specializes exclusively in permanent placement for licensed rehabilitation therapy professionals nationwide.
  • We understand therapy.
