OTA

Hey there. I'm putting together the listing for our next Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant at Lifepoint Rehabilitation in Tampa, FL. We're part of Lifepoint Health, which runs hospitals and rehab centers across the country. The core idea is simple: if we take good care of our team, they can provide truly great care for our patients.

What You'll Do

You'll be a key part of the therapy team. Your main focus is on helping patients progress through their treatment plans.

• Talk with your supervising therapist and other team members about how patients are doing, including any challenges they face.
• Show family members or nursing staff how to continue exercises and activities outside of therapy sessions.
• A big part of the job is documentation. You'll record patient care to meet all the rules set by regulators, insurance payers, and accrediting bodies.
• You'll help get patients on the schedule and handle posting daily charges to their records.
• Keeping your work area and equipment safe and clean is part of the routine.
• The work also means following our company's Code of Business Conduct, compliance policies, professional standards, and state and federal laws.
• And you'll take on other duties as they come up.

What We Provide

We back up our commitment to you with tangible support. Here’s what that looks like for a full time position like this one.

• You can choose from several tiers of medical, dental, and vision coverage.

• You get paid time off.
• We help with career growth through tuition assistance for higher education and certifications, plus loan assistance programs.
• There's a 401(k) retirement plan with a company match.
• Your well being matters. We have mental health services, physical wellness programs like free gym memberships, financial wellness tools, and employee discount programs.
• The learning doesn't stop. There are ongoing opportunities for professional development and career advancement here.

• A certification from the American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA).
