April is Occupational Therapy Awareness month! Unlike physical, speech, or respiratory therapy where the job title is inherently implied, Occupational Therapists may frequently find themselves educating what their jobs entail.... "Occupational therapy is a client-centered health profession concerned with promoting health and wellbeing through human occupation. The primary goal of occupational therapy is to improve health and quality of life through facilitating participation and engagement in occupations, the meaningful, necessary, and familiar activities of everyday life." OT's may work in physical rehabilitation settings, psychiatric hospitals, outpatient clinics, schools, home care, and more..... They may specialize in treatment areas such as hand therapy, pediatrics, neonatal care, adaptive technology, brain injury, sensory integration, neuro-rehabilitation, and workplace health. Here at The Good Crust, we hire Occupational Therapists to be imbedded with the dough production team, in order to serve in a job-coaching role, customizing work routines to enable success. With a keen focus on competence, and finding employable strengths in each teammate, The Good Crust commits to hiring a diverse workforce, and our company culture is the better for it! #occupationaltherapy #occupationaltherapist #OccupationalTherapyMonth #workforcedevelopment #JobCreation #diversityequityandinclusion #thegoodcrust
