Is Occupational Therapy Assistant a good career?

• Answer:

  Yes, in my opinion it is a good career, because the outlook is great and the pay good. Occupation therapists help improve patients' ability to perform tasks in living and working environments. They work with patients who suffer mentally, emotional, physically, and developmentally. To summarize they develop, recover, and/or maintain the daily living and work skills of patients who are suffering from temporary or long term disabilities. To become a occupational therapist, you need to earn a master's degree or higher and pass the exam to earn your license. To become a assistant, only a associate's degree is required. The salary of a occupational therapist is about $66,780 annually, and for an assistant it is $48,230 annually, and of course the pay may vary depending on the state or country and where you work (hospitals, nursing facilities, private or family services, etc. For further info about the slay you can visit the site below in the sources section and go to the tab labeled "Pay".
