Occupational therapists are categorized as medical professionals who assign everyday tasks to patients suffering from injuries, disabilities, and illnesses. The tasks assigned by an occupational therapist help patients develop new skills, do things in new and easier ways, and adapt their environments to their own needs. Occupational therapists work in various settings, such as hospitals, schools, home health services, and many other environments.
Skills Required:
* Problem-solving
* Interpersonal and communication skills
* Empathy
* Creativity
* Physical stamina
* Teamwork
In general, an occupational therapist needs to have an educational background in the field. In the US, occupational therapists need to have at least a master’s degree to be employed. However, in the UK, graduating from any occupational therapy program would be enough. In addition to an educational background, other types of qualifications are needed to be employed as an occupational therapist. For example, occupational therapists in the US need to pass the National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy (NBCOT) exam. Moreover, gaining experience, maintaining a professional demeanor, and staying up-to-date with the latest research and trends in the field are key attributes for occupational therapists.
