What If the Part of Home Health You're Best At Became Your Actual Job? Some Occupational Therapists love carrying a treatment caseload from evaluation through discharge. Others discover that they're especially good at something different. Admissions. Walking into a new patient situation. Conducting a comprehensive assessment. Asking the right questions. Completing OASIS accurately. Identifying risks. Establishing the baseline. Organizing a complicated clinical picture and determining what needs to happen next. If that's where you're strongest, why not build a role around it?

You'll meet patients as they're entering services, complete comprehensive Start of Care assessments, gather the clinical and functional information the team needs, complete OASIS documentation, and establish an appropriate plan for what comes next.
