Using Your Occupational Therapy Skills in a Non-Clinical OT Job

Feeling a bit burned out by OT or maybe looking for a sidegig where you can use your OT skills to revive your passion for your career? There are many non-traditional occupational therapy jobs out there where you can use your skill set for non-clinical positions that will help you to love your work again!
Sarah Lyon OTR/L, OTpotential.com and Meredith Castin PT, DPT, theNonClinicalPT.com share resources and discuss how we can narrow down our OT skills to find a job that is perfect for you.

I really have always appreciated your platform. I'll be signing up once again. You sent me a lovely encouraging email when I 1st became a COTA and was super overwhelmed. Now I'm on clinicals for ot and is too scared to go back to SNF.
