Occupational therapy covers a pretty wide range of services, but generally refers to the assessment and treatment of both physical and psychiatric issues. People in various occupational therapy jobs work together to help prevent disabilities and promote independence in every area of daily living. Occupational therapy jobs may take a person into hospitals, clinics, schools, nursing homes, private health centers or a patient’s home. Once a treatment protocol is mapped out and completed, the therapist will analyze how effective it was at reaching the goals that were set out at the start. The details and specific services of all occupational therapy jobs will vary depending on the type of conditions and situations the therapist is treating with any given patient.
