Job Description

Overview:

Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA)
Full-Time · 30-35 hrs/week · Secure Inpatient Rehab | Unique Skilled-Nursing Environment

Why This Role Stands Out

Unique, Secure Setting – Deliver skilled-nursing–level rehab inside a protected campus that feels safer and more predictable than many home-health or community sites.
No Insurance Red Tape – Forget visit caps and prior-auth headaches; your clinical judgment—not paperwork—guides every plan of care.
Autonomy + Teamwork – Provide true 1:1 care while collaborating closely with an on-site OT and a supportive interdisciplinary team.
Strong Compensation & Benefits – Competitive pay, full benefits, CEU support, and the resources you need to thrive.
Meaningful Impact – Help older adults regain independence, master ADLs, and enjoy a higher quality of life during their stay.
Responsibilities:

What You’ll Do

Deliver evidence-based ADL training, therapeutic exercise, and adaptive-equipment education under the supervision of a licensed OT.
Assist with evaluating, progressing, and documenting personalized care plans for geriatric, post-surgical, orthopedic, and neurological patients.
Educate patients - and staff when appropriate -on safe transfers, fall-prevention, and self-management strategies.
Maintain a safe, therapeutic environment by following security and infection-control protocols and ensuring equipment is in top condition.
Communicate progress and changes promptly to the OT and wider care team to keep treatment plans current and effective.
Qualifications:

What You’ll Bring

Accredited OTA degree and active (or eligible) Ohio OTA license with NBCOT certification.
Experience—or a strong interest—in skilled-nursing, geriatric, or inpatient rehab settings.
Ability to work confidently and independently while staying closely aligned with your supervising OT.
Clear, compassionate communication skills and a team-first attitude.

Pay Range: USD $35.00 - USD $35.00 /Hr.
