Occupational Therapy Assistant

TMC: Therapy Management Corporation

Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant

If you're a Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA) who wants to empower patients to achieve meaningful outcomes through compassionate and patient-centered therapy—this is it.

In this role, you'll provide occupational therapy services to the adult/geriatric population, working closely with patients to improve independence, mobility, safety, and overall quality of life. You'll have the opportunity to follow patient progress over time and deliver truly patient-centered care in a collaborative clinical environment.

Here's your chance to focus on what matters most—quality outcomes, consistency of care, and clinical autonomy while making a meaningful difference every day.

Therapy Management Corporation (TMC) is a trusted therapy provider dedicated to delivering high-quality rehabilitation services while creating environments where clinicians feel supported, valued and empowered.

Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Build meaningful relationships while helping individuals improve independence, mobility and overall quality of life
  • Enjoy flexible scheduling options and a supportive work environment designed to promote work-life balance
  • Provide personalized, patient-centered occupational therapy focused on functional outcomes
  • Deliver high-quality care in a setting that values clinical excellence over high patient volume
  • Thrive in a collaborative, therapist-driven environment that encourages professional growth, mentorship and clinical autonomy
Responsibilities

What You'll Do:

  • Provide personalized occupational therapy services under the direction of an Occupational Therapist to help patients improve functional independence, safety and overall quality of life
  • Implement patient-centered treatment plans focused on ADLs, strength, mobility, and adaptive techniques
  • Help patients improve their ability to perform daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, grooming, and meal preparation
  • Partner with interdisciplinary teams, caregivers, and nursing staff to support strong patient outcomes and continuity of care
  • Maintain accurate clinical documentation, monitor patient progress and adjust treatment plans based on individual rehabilitation needs
Qualifications

Compensation & Benefits:

  • Competitive compensation
  • Flexible scheduling
  • Generous PTO and paid holidays (including one personal holiday)
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Continuing education (CEU) and state licensure reimbursement
  • Mental wellness support program
  • New graduate tuition reimbursement opportunities
  • Career advancement and leadership development

Qualifications:

  • Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA) or license eligible in the state of practice
  • Graduate of an accredited Occupational Therapy Assistant program
  • Interest or experience in geriatric rehabilitation or senior living therapy
  • Passion for patient-centered care and improving quality of life for older adults
