Occupational Therapy Aide Schools - Health and Medical Professions
Occupational Therapy Aides help patients who are mentally, emotionally, or physically disabled adjust to handicaps and regain abilities to perform daily living and self-care skills. They work as part of a team with physicians, counselors, and physical therapists and under the supervision of an occupational therapist.
Occupational therapy aides use therapy programs designed by occupational therapists and work closely with patients to observe them, help them, and monitor their progress. They frequently utilize special equipment to aid patients and help with their therapy. They also teach patients how to adjust to work and home life after becoming disabled by injury or illness. Most occupational therapy aides are employed at hospitals, and many work at nursing homes. Some work at schools for the handicapped, rehabilitation centers, or at adult daycare centers.
