  • Help individuals return to their optimal level of productivity and independence.
  • Perform skilled therapy procedures as ordered by the physician and outlined in the care plan.
  • Instruct patients and families on home programs, fine motor exercises, and therapy techniques.

Collaborating & Communicating

  • Work closely with other home care professionals to develop patient care plans.
  • Regularly consult with the OT on treatment adjustments or changes.
  • Provide services as planned, delegated, and supervised by the OT.
  • Educate patients and families to support continued progress at home.

Documenting & Continuous Learning

  • Prepare accurate medical records and update care plans after each visit.
  • Assist in preparing clinical and progress notes.
  • Attend scheduled patient care conferences to discuss care plans.
  • Participate in Quality Assessment & Performance Improvement (QAPI) activities.
  • Engage in ongoing education and present in-service programs as assigned.
Requirements:
  • Graduate of an accredited Occupational Therapy Assistant program as recognized by the Accreditation Council for Occupational Therapy Education (ACOTE) of the American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA).
  • Certified by the National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy (NBCOT).
  • Currently certified in the state of practice, with licensure or regulation as applicable.
  • Two (2) years of experience preferred.

Where You’ll Work
  • Primarily indoors in agency offices and patient homes.
  • Travel required to and from patient locations.
Who You Report To
  • Occupational Therapist (OT)
  • Home Health Clinical Managers and Director
Risk & Physical Requirements
  • Exposure Level: High (due to direct patient interactions in home settings).
  • Physical Activity: Regular bending, lifting, standing, and moderate lifting required. Must be able to stand and actively work for extended periods.
