Certified Occupational Therapist Assistant - COTA

Job Description

This is a full time position.

This would be an excellent location for a new grad, as we have another OT & COTA on site to provide one-on-one mentoring.

Building information: “Tendercare Health Care Center of Cheboygan” is a 85 bed center offering long & short-term rehabilitation solutions. We pride ourselves on being recognized as one of the premier skilled nursing facilities in northern Michigan. Our caseload consists primarily of an orthopedic caseload, but also includes some neurological and oncology patients. We have a team of highly experienced therapists that could make great mentors for a new grad, or you could intertwine your existing talents with them and help us further develop our rehab program. Take a look at our building’s website for more details and then come in for a personal visit: http://www.extendicareus.com/tendercarecheboygan/index.aspx

COTA = Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant

We are not a contract/staffing company. We are an in-house provider of rehab (our parent company, Extendicare, owns the buildings), so there is no chance of a lost contract. Come to a company that values quality patient care over productivity/revenue!

Most of our settings are large post-acute (transitional care) sites – some with wellness units, outpatient units and attached ALFs – with an average length of stay of 30 days. But we also have a few outpatient clinics and rehab hospitals in some areas. Our focus is on increasing functional levels and returning the patients home (“rehab to home”).

What sets us apart?

• Unlimited free CEUs via our ProStep University

• Flexibility in Scheduling

• Licensure Reimbursement

• Medical/Dental/Vision Insurance + more …

• Generous PTO package

• 401K w/ company match

• Annual Performance Based Bonus

• New Grad mentorship & orientation programs

• Computerized documentation and your own hand held device to enter

ProStep Rehab builds a culture around “Revolutionizing Post-Acute Therapy.” We take pride in assisting therapists in reaching a work/life balance coupled with professional growth. This balance is achieved through a variety of programs including career ladders, attainable productivity standards and individual career mapping. We’re looking for someone who values education, professional growth, and a fun work environment.
