Why consider a career as an Occupational Therapy Assistant?
Licensed occupational therapy assistants (OTA) are creative caring professionals that work underneath the supervision of a licensed occupational therapist. Students can look forward to a dynamic career helping people with traumatic injuries, stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, or mental health problems in their homes, community centers, rehabilitation hospitals, and nursing homes. In addition, students have diverse career opportunities to help children with Cerebral Palsy, Down’s Syndrome, learning disabilities, and behavioral problems in early intervention programs, school systems, private practice, public health and community programs.
