Occupational Therapy Assistant Jobs

Suru provides outpatient occupational therapy in patients’ homes across Southern California and is seeking licensed Certified Occupational Therapy Assistants (COTAs) to treat patients near where they live and work. The COTA provides follow-up visits in patients’ homes. A licensed occupational therapist completes each evaluation and plan of care and is available to answer questions. Plans of care typically involve 2–3 visits per week for 12 weeks and are often renewed when continued therapy is appropriate. Suru’s app notifies the COTA when a nearby patient needs visits; the COTA chooses which patients to accept and arranges visit times directly with patients. Suru handles intake, insurance, evaluations, and billing. Routine visit notes are completed in the app by voice dictation, review, and submission. Compensation is per completed visit, with direct deposit every week. The role is performed as a 1099 independent contractor.
