• Educating Clients & Families:
  Provide education and practical strategies to clients, families, and caregivers regarding safe mobility, ADLs, energy conservation, cognitive strategies, equipment use, and strategies to maximize independence.
• Monitoring Progress:
  Track client outcomes, evaluate progress toward functional goals, and modify treatment plans and interventions as needed to ensure care remains responsive to the client's changing needs.
• Maintaining Accurate Documentation:
  Complete clinical notes, assessment forms, progress reports, and other required documentation in accordance with regulatory standards and Therapia's documentation protocols.
• Communicating with the Care Team:
  Collaborate with clients' physicians, physiotherapists, nurses, social workers, caregivers, and other healthcare professionals as needed to support continuity and quality of care.
• Ensuring Client Safety:
  Identify and address risks related to falls, transfers, functional mobility, cognitive impairment, and the home environment. Follow appropriate infection control and safety protocols at all times.
• Managing Your Schedule Independently:
  Coordinate your appointments directly with clients via Therapia's platform, allowing you to work efficiently and autonomously within your preferred service area.
