Occupational therapists (OTs) and certified occupational therapy assistants (COTAs) help people of all ages to improve their ability to perform tasks in their daily living and working environments. They work with individuals who have conditions that are mentally, physically, developmentally, socially, or emotionally disabling. Occupational therapists use the &#8220;occupations&#8221; of self-care, work, play, and leisure activities to increase independence, enhance development, and\/or prevent disability. To achieve these goals occupational therapists may also adapt the task or the environment.<\/p>\n<p>Please join us in recognizing our occupational therapists and occupational therapy assistants at Cooper. Our team of inpatient therapists and outpatient therapists serve thousands of patients each year and provide a high level of quality, skill, and positive outcomes to those they serve.
