Pre-Occupational Therapy Track
Are you considering a career as an occupational therapist? What does an OT do? An occupational therapist helps individuals of all ages engage in activities they enjoy and need to do for themselves. OTs assist people in recovering skills after an injury or illness and support children with disabilities in leading as normal a life as possible.
