  • Educate residents and families on strategies to support safety, independence, and continued progress within the COTA scope of practice.

  • Maintain accurate and timely clinical documentation in accordance with professional, regulatory, and facility standards.

  • Participate in care planning and discharge preparation as appropriate.

  • Contribute to a positive, collaborative, patient-centered rehabilitation environment.
