    Job Description

    What You'll Do

    You'll work alongside our Staff Occupational Therapist to deliver hands-on, meaningful care to residents - not just running through a checklist, but genuinely helping people regain independence.

    • Provide direct resident treatment under the guidance of the OT
    • Build real relationships with residents, families, and the care team - you'll be the one communicating progress, goals, and discharge planning
    • Educate residents and families on home exercise programs, adaptive equipment, and fall prevention
    • Recommend and help order equipment that gives residents back their independence - splints, assistive devices, grab bars, and more
    • Help train Aides and provide in-services to fellow staff - your expertise shapes the whole team
    • Take part in Resident Care conferences and contribute to program development and quality initiatives

    What You Bring

    • Associate degree from an accredited COTA program
    • Active state licensure as an Occupational Therapy Assistant, in good standing
    • Comfort with documentation systems (Net Health, PointClickCare a plus)
    • CPR certification (if required by your state licensure)
    • A steady, compassionate presence - someone who can connect with residents, families, and colleagues alike

    The Environment

    A low-to-moderate noise, team-oriented setting where your clinical judgment and hands-on care make a visible difference every day - whether you're helping someone stand independently for the first time in weeks, or fitting a resident for the equipment that gets them home.
