What are My Options?

I never realized before how many different locations you could find yourself if this was something you chose for your future. Occupational therapists work in a variety of settings. These include hospitals, rehabilitation centers, nursing facilities, home health, outpatient clinics, private practice, school systems, private organizations, industries, and community agencies such as return to work programs, prisons, and community settings. The number of different places where OTs work is growing every year. Along with the endless work environment options, you can choose your type of clients which include clients with permanent disabilities, work related therapy, children, elderly, mental health patients, terminally ill patients, and people with chronic pain. I think that is great, how many jobs can you actually customize your cliental along with picking the location of where you work, and always have confidence that someone will employ you somewhere? There aren’t many of these jobs now days, if I do say so myself.
