Certified Occupational Therapist Assistant

$32 - $40 per hour

Brandon Woods at Alvamar

Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA) - Cherrelyn Healthcare Center | Littleton, CO

Part-Time & Full-Time | $32-$40/hr DOE

What You're Walking Into

Cherrelyn Healthcare Center is a 176-bed skilled nursing facility in Littleton, CO, part of Stellar Senior Living and operating for 12+ years. That kind of longevity in this industry means something: stable leadership, consistent census, and a therapy team that's built real culture over time.

You'll work directly alongside our OTs to help residents rebuild the functional skills that matter most to them. This is hands-on, relationship-driven rehab work in a structured SNF environment.

The Role

As a COTA, you'll carry an assigned caseload under OT supervision, implementing individualized treatment plans focused on ADLs, functional mobility, and quality-of-life outcomes.

Day-to-day responsibilities:

  • Deliver OT treatment plans under the supervising OT's direction
  • Work with residents on ADL retraining, fine motor skills, strength, balance, and daily functional tasks
  • Track and document resident progress accurately and on schedule
  • Educate residents and families on techniques, adaptive equipment, and home carry-over strategies
  • Collaborate with nursing, PT, SLP, and care coordination teams
  • Maintain organized, safe treatment spaces in compliance with facility and state standards
  • Participate in ongoing clinical training and competency development
What We Offer

  • $33-$40/hr , based on experience
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Paid Time Off + paid holidays
  • 401(k) retirement savings plan
  • Paid bi-weekly
  • Tuition reimbursement and continuing education opportunities
  • A tenured therapy team - no constant turnover, no starting over every 6 months
  • Real advancement pathways within a growing, multi-community company
Who's a Strong Fit

  • COTAs who want consistent, meaningful caseloads - not rushed 15-minute sessions
  • Clinicians who enjoy building relationships with older adults over a full course of care
  • Therapists ready to step into a collaborative, long-standing SNF team
  • People who take documentation seriously and can work both independently and under OT supervision
Requirements

  • Active Colorado COTA licensure/certification in good standing
  • Associate's degree from an accredited OTA program
  • Minimum 1 year of COTA experience (SNF or post-acute preferred)
  • Strong communication and documentation skills
  • Physical ability to assist with patient mobility and perform repetitive therapeutic tasks
  • Complete the brief screening questions as part of your application
