What to Know About Travel Occupational Therapy
Individuals who are dealing with an injury, illness or disability may have difficulty performing and completing their normal daily tasks and activities. As an occupational therapist, you'll be working one-on-one with these patients, showing them specific movements they can work on and developing helpful tools for them to improve their mobility.
With this fulfilling career path, you can help individuals overcome challenges and reach their highest level of potential with your support and guidance. Also, as you travel from one location to the next, you'll gain new experiences, connect with fellow workers, and grow as a healthcare provider and person in this career field.
Daily Duties and Responsibilities
Depending on what kind of accident or illness your patients are dealing with, they could be struggling with doing tasks ranging from sweeping the floor to buttoning their shirts. To help improve your patients' quality of life, some of your daily duties and responsibilities will involve:
Assisting with daily living and vocational skills
Teaching how to adapt and correct movement to gain independence
Creating a treatment plan or daily routine that supports their individual needs and goals
