What Is Occupational Therapy?
Occupational therapy (OT) helps people of all ages participate in meaningful daily activities—like self-care, work, or play—despite challenges from illness, injury, or disability. Combining science and creativity, OT empowers individuals to live fully and independently by promoting physical, emotional, and social well-being across diverse settings.
OTs work in settings such as hospitals, schools, homes, rehabilitation centers, and community programs, among many others. With strong job growth, diverse specialties, and flexibility, OT offers a dynamic, rewarding, and stable healthcare career path.
