Job description
Certified Occupational Therapist Assistant
Industry: Healthcare / Health Services - Therapy / Rehab Services Job Category: Medical / Health - Therapy
At WelbeHealth, each participant of our program is guided by our interdisciplinary team (IDT) – composed of clinical and non-clinical members who work cohesively to provide quality patient-centered care. Our values and participant focus lead the way no matter what. The Certified Occupational Therapist Assistant (COTA) is a key member of the IDT, collaborating with other members of the Rehabilitation team to implement care plans and providing condition updates to the clinical team. Under the direction of an Occupational Therapist, the COTA provides restorative and rehabilitative occupational therapy services to participants at the center and in their homes to maximize independence, safety, and performance of ADLs.
This role is different because COTAs at WelbeHealth:
Have lower patient volumes – no more seeing 3-4 patients an hour
Form long-term relationships with participants rather than short-term rehab stints
Collaborate with other therapists, providers, and disciplines
Have work/life balance - no after hours of documentation
We care about our team members. That's why we offer:
Medical insurance coverage (Medical, Dental, Vision)
Work/life balance - We mean it! 17 days of personal time off (PTO), 12 holidays observed annually, and 6 sick days
401K savings + match
Comprehensive compensation package including base pay and bonus
And additional benefits!
On the day-to-day, you will:
Administer participant treatment programs as established by the Occupational Therapist
Assist the Occupational Therapist in obtaining vital signs, ranges of motion, and strength testing
Coordinate with other members of the Rehabilitation team to implement activities and programs based on participants' individual treatment plans
Handle scheduling of participants' treatments, clinical visits, and billing
Document occupational therapy interventions in accordance with established care plans including but not limited to the use of devices, techniques, and activities to promote muscle re-education, perceptual-motor and cognitive function, balance, and endurance, and other factors affecting independence in performing ADLs
Job requirements include:
Occupational Therapy Assistant (OTA) associate's degree from an accredited program
Valid California OTA license, or proof of license eligibility
Minimum of two (2) years of OTA experience in a clinical setting with a frail or elderly population
OTA knowledge necessary to treat frail, elderly participants with complex needs
We are seeking COTAs that ideally have outpatient, acute, inpatient, or skilled nursing experience.
