Occupational Therapist

Company Description

Hudson In Home Physical Therapy PLLC delivers outpatient-quality therapy directly in patients' homes, reducing the need for transportation and clinic visits multiple times per week. By providing care in a familiar environment, patients often have more energy for treatment and are more consistent with their therapy sessions. The practice operates like an outpatient clinic but treats patients at home, offering one-on-one, hour-long visits with licensed therapists and no use of aides or assistants.

This individualized approach minimizes distractions and supports better recovery outcomes. For many older adults, in-home therapy also allows clinicians to assess daily living activities and tailor interventions specifically to their home setting.

The Occupational Therapist will provide full-time, on-site care to patients in their homes, based out of Bronx, NY. Responsibilities include evaluating patients' functional abilities, developing individualized treatment plans, and delivering hands-on occupational therapy focused on improving activities of daily living and safety in the home environment. The role involves collaborating with physical therapists and other healthcare professionals, educating patients and caregivers, and documenting clinical findings and progress in a timely, accurate manner.

The Occupational Therapist will also adapt interventions to each patient's goals, monitor outcomes, and adjust treatment plans to support optimal rehabilitation and independence.
