Job description

Certified Occupational Therapy assistant (COTA) — Broward County

In Home Rehab of Florida provides in-home therapy services to older adults throughout South Florida. We work with Medicare Part A and Part B patients and partner with multiple home health agencies, allowing our therapists to access consistent opportunities through one company instead of having to contract with several agencies on their own.

We are looking for an experienced, dependable, and compassionate Occupational Therapy Assistant to join our growing team in Broward County. This is a great opportunity for a COTA who enjoys treating patients one-on-one in the home setting, wants flexibility, and is looking to add consistent visits to their schedule.

At In Home Rehab of Florida, we do the heavy lifting of finding contracts and building agency relationships so you can focus on what you do best: treating patients. Our therapists benefit from multiple avenues of work, flexible scheduling, competitive compensation, and the support of a team that understands home health.

This position is ideal for a therapist who is already making home visits and would like to take on additional work, or for a therapist looking for a flexible model outside of the traditional clinic setting.

Responsibilities:

• Treat patients in their homes throughout Broward County
• Provide creative, individualized treatment sessions based on the patient’s plan of care
• Assist patients with improving strength, balance, mobility, safety, and independence
• Engage family members and caregivers as needed
• Provide patient education, home exercise program instruction, and DME recommendations when appropriate
• Complete timely and accurate documentation through EMR
• Maintain frequent communication with the supervising therapist and office team
• Follow Medicare and home health documentation guidelines

Requirements:

• Active Florida Occupational Therapy Assistant license
• Eligibility to work in the United States
• Prior home health or geriatric experience preferred
• Strong interpersonal and time management skills
• Ability to treat patients independently in the home setting
• Ability to complete documentation accurately and on time
• Reliable transportation

Why Join In Home Rehab of Florida:

• Flexible schedule — make your own hours
• Competitive pay
• One-on-one patient care
• Steady opportunities through multiple agency contracts
• Supportive and responsive team
• No need to manage multiple agency relationships on your own
• Opportunity to grow with an expanding South Florida therapy company
