Urgent Need: Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant Northern Montgomery County
About The Position
Human Touch Home Health is actively hiring Occupational Therapy Assistants (OTAs) for Full-Time, Part-Time, and PRN home health opportunities throughout Northern and Upper Montgomery County. We currently have patient needs in Clarksburg, Damascus, Olney, Burtonsville, Ashton, Boyds, Potomac, and surrounding communities. We need OTAs, but we don't expect one OTA to cover all of Montgomery County. Choose the communities that work for you. In home health, you're not practicing daily living skills in a controlled environment. You're helping a patient safely get out of their own bed, use their own shower, get dressed, prepare a meal, and navigate the environment where they actually live. Those everyday victories matter. And you get to be part of making them happen.
