  • Lead therapeutic activity groups under the supervision of an occupational therapist on a weekly basis.
  • Prepare and manage equipment and supplies necessary for therapy.
  • Maintain cleanliness and functionality of therapy equipment and spaces.
  • Complete documentation and workload data promptly.
