Occupational Therapy Aides

Occupational therapy aides work under the direct supervision of occupational therapists and assistants to support patient care and maintain smooth clinic operations. They spend their days preparing treatment rooms by setting up equipment, organizing therapeutic materials, and ensuring spaces are clean and ready for sessions. During appointments, they may help transport patients, retrieve needed supplies, and assist with basic administrative tasks like updating patient records or scheduling follow-up visits. Much of their work involves hands-on support, such as helping patients move between treatment areas, setting up adaptive equipment, or demonstrating the proper use of therapeutic devices under therapist direction.
