cota certified occupational therapy assistant: Occupational Therapy Practice Framework: Domain and Process Aota, 2014 As occupational therapy celebrates its centennial in 2017, attention returns to the profession's founding belief in the value of therapeutic occupations as a way to remediate illness and maintain health. The founders emphasized the importance of establishing a therapeutic relationship with each client and designing an intervention plan based on the knowledge about a client's context and environment, values, goals, and needs. Using today's lexicon, the profession's founders proposed a vision for the profession that was occupation based, client centered, and evidence based--the vision articulated in the third edition of the Occupational Therapy Practice Framework: Domain and Process. The Framework is a must-have official document from the American Occupational Therapy Association. Intended for occupational therapy practitioners and students, other health care professionals, educators, researchers, payers, and consumers, the Framework summarizes the interrelated constructs that describe occupational therapy practice. In addition to the creation of a new preface to set the tone for the work, this new edition includes the following highlights: a redefinition of the overarching statement describing occupational therapy's domain; a new definition of clients that includes persons, groups, and populations; further delineation of the profession's relationship to organizations; inclusion of activity demands as part of the process; and even more up-to-date analysis and guidance for today's occupational therapy practitioners. Achieving health, well-being, and participation in life through engagement in occupation is the overarching statement that describes the domain and process of occupational therapy in the fullest sense. The Framework can provide the structure and guidance that practitioners can use to meet this important goal. |

cota certified occupational therapy assistant: Career As an Occupational Therapist Institute for Career Research, 2016-04-11 OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY IS ONE OF the hottest careers in healthcare. There are plenty of opportunities, and the need is growing for occupational therapists (and occupational therapy assistants and aides) all over the country. In fact, the number of jobs is predicted to swell by 30 percent over the next 10 years. What is occupational therapy? It is a health and rehabilitation profession providing services for people of all ages who may need help to lead productive, independent, and fulfilling lives. Patients may need specialized assistance as a result of physical, developmental, social, or emotional problems. The term occupational does not only relate to jobs, but may include any task or activity, whether it is work-related, recreational, or part of daily life, such as getting dressed, cooking, and driving. Occupational therapy is a patient-centered practice that relies on holistic principles to assess and treat people as unique individuals. Every treatment plan is designed for a particular patient to help the person achieve specific goals. Most occupational therapists work in hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, doctors' offices, and schools. A growing number work for home health agencies, providing services to patients in their homes. Occupational therapists can be generalists, working with people of all ages and with every kind of disability. Being a generalist has its advantages, like keeping every day interesting and providing a wide variety of experiences. Also consider that this is a very flexible career with many different kinds of practice to choose from for those with particular interests. For example, some OTs may enjoy working with school children with Down syndrome or helping amputees regain skills needed to get back to work. Others may prefer to work with premature babies in a pediatric hospital, help veterans with PTSD, or assist older people in nursing homes deal with Alzheimer's disease. There are currently nine specialty areas that offer opportunities for certification. There are also new specialties that do not yet offer certification, but may in the near future. They include autism sensory integration, corrective medicine, and occupational science. A master's degree is required to become a licensed occupational therapist. If an individual is not ready to invest the money and time (six years on average following high school graduation), there are alternatives. It only takes a two-year associate degree to be eligible for certification as an occupational therapy assistant (COTA). COTAs do much the same work as occupational therapists, and they are paid quite well considering the modest educational requirements. A COTA's average annual salary is about $60,000, which is about 70 percent of what a licensed occupational therapist can expect. Someone wishing to enter the field can also qualify for a job as an occupational therapy aide with no more than a high school diploma. People who start out as assistants or aides usually go back to school at some point to do the additional work required to become an occupational therapist. Occupational therapy can offer a lifetime career that is challenging and diversified. If you are looking for a career in the healthcare field that offers satisfying and rewarding work, read on. |

cota certified occupational therapy assistant: Trauma Patient to Trauma Nurse Rolfe Ordona, 2021-11 Rolfe Eric Ordona, RN, has been working in the medical field since 2003. He was tragically involved in an accident with his fiance Monica Janette Azero. He has been working hard to achieve his goals and dreams. He was inspired by his journey to success and wanted to motivate and influence others to live life to the fullest. I'm an ordinary guy doing ordinary things. Most of the time, I spent my younger years thinking I knew everything. I really didn't listen to anyone, no one was going through what I was going through. There was an event in my life that changed my whole world. This event became the inspiration behind writing this book. There are different types of people that I became while growing up and going through tough times. I became a person who made things happen, a person who watched things happen and a person who didn't know what was happening. Don't be the person who doesn't know what's happening. Once you get there, it's tough to get out of being that person. Most people start out making things happen, but as soon as tragedy comes, they become the person who starts to watch things that happen. After a while, depression sets in, and they fall so far back in a hole, they become a person who no longer knows what's happening. This book was written to show how an ordinary guy with everyday problems was faced with a traumatic event in his life, where he had no choice but to believe in his dreams and to make things happen with no help but his faith in God and most of all believing in himself. Rolfe talks about how he had to think outside the box in order to save his house and why making it through nursing school was so important to him. Rolfe's goal in life after the accident was to have a story to tell. He wanted to influence people to do better and to live the best life they can. Be passionate about who you are and where you see yourself in the future. He wanted people to understand that hard work will always pay off. This ordinary guy went from being a trauma patient to becoming a trauma nurse. |

Dementia occurs when the brain cells stop working as they should, affecting the person's ability to think, remember, and communicate.
