An employee in this class participates in the development, implementation, and coordination of an occupational therapy program to provide screening, evaluation, and treatment of exceptional students. The employee must select, from a wide range of activities, the program activity appropriate for each student. Problems that arise in the treatment program are expected to be resolved independently. Errors in the treatment could cause serious harm to students and potential liability to the school system. The employee receives general direction from the Director of Exceptional Children's Program. Direct supervision may be exercised over support personnel.
