Looking for More Than the Same Routine Every Day?

No two homes are alike.

No two patients have the same goals.

That's what makes home health so rewarding.

As a Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant, you'll work with patients recovering from surgery, illness, injury, or neurological conditions—helping them regain the skills they need to live safely and independently. Every day brings new challenges, new environments, and new opportunities to make a meaningful difference.

If you enjoy problem-solving, building relationships, and seeing real progress, this is the career for you.

• Experience a wide variety of diagnoses and patient populations.
• Deliver one-on-one care without the distractions of a busy rehab gym.
• Build stronger relationships with patients and caregivers.
• Work independently while receiving ongoing support from experienced Occupational Therapists.
• Enjoy a flexible schedule that allows you to focus on quality care.

For over 30 years, we've helped Minnesota families remain independent at home while creating a workplace where therapists are supported, respected, and empowered.

We proudly offer:

• Free access to our Med Bridge Education Hub for continuing education and professional development.
• Licensure reimbursement when it's time to renew.
• Cell phone reimbursement for eligible clinicians.
• Comprehensive medical, dental, vision, life insurance, disability coverage, PTO, paid holidays, and 401(k) for eligible employees.
• Structured onboarding and mentorship for clinicians new to home health.
• A collaborative interdisciplinary team committed to helping you succeed.

• Implement treatment plans developed by the supervising Occupational Therapist.
• Help patients improve independence with activities of daily living and functional mobility.
• Reinforce therapeutic exercises, adaptive strategies, and home safety recommendations.
• Educate patients and caregivers on equipment and techniques that promote long-term success.
• Collaborate with physicians, nurses, therapists, and other members of the care team.

• Active Minnesota Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA) license.
• Strong communication and patient education skills.
• Compassionate, self-motivated, and organized.
• Home health experience is welcomed but not required.
• Valid driver's license and reliable transportation.
