For some reason, this video was incredibly moving. I have been trying to decide between speech therapist and occupational therapy for a while now. And this definitely tipped the decision.

I enjoyed this video, I am considering becoming an OT. Thank you!

Great video! Very informative about this particular career field with inspirational music that matches. I loved the enthusiastic ending, too =)

Wow I love this video: to the point and allows you to really visualize what work OTs do. Thank you!

That looks so interesting and fun! I hope I get into a program next year

Pediatric Ocupatinal therpist is my dream job im 16 hopefully in some years i will be back to say i made it

Love it!! That's my dream being an a great occupational therapist

the song is so much suitable with the video..... great job x_x

APRIL is OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY MONTH! Occupational therapists "help people across the lifespan participate in the things they want and need to do through the therapeutic use of everyday activities." This video gives you an idea of all the things our OTs do to help our patients get back in the game! kzread.info/dash/bejne/pGSVpaytm6fKg6g.html

I'm currently in a medical program at my school. My highschool is a technical magnet school and im excited to learn more about the medical field. The plan is to be an ot. I'm a sophmore now and ready to start learning abt nursing etc...

I'm a occupational therapist in Japan. This video so amazing. I came to like work more.

Really cool people who love helping others.

I learned about this career and really wanted to pursue it, but the powers that be make it really difficult. There is only one college local to me that has this program and they only accept 30 people at a shot.. Id have to take prerequisites first spend money, and than I might not even get into the program and I wouldn't have the extra time to waste being in my mid 30's. I wish I knew about this field earlier in life.. But I was busy doing this job for free taking care of my mother who had a host of medical problems and cancer for years. I could bring that experience with me to this field, but they rather make it extraordinarily difficult and expensive for people.

I know right? these helpful people deserve to have the program cheaper. perhaps you can look into the health corps scholarship for that program. there's also occupational therapist assistants . not sure if they have a program near you. if not, you can take those prerequisites and use them elsewhere like.dental hygiene or nursing, not sure if you're intersted in either of those last two.

Jenny mss A lot of programs only take a certain number of people.. Where i live, its limited options, and one option is 1500 a credit.. Maybe you are cool with having to pay tremendous loans to get an education and take a dumb test that is completely irrelevant for another 200 dollars. He'll if people don't mind the shitty system, than hey more money in their pockets.. No reason to have to take all these bullshit prerequisites and repeat highschool all over again and pay such enormous fees to have to pay loans off for life. Its a shit system and not everyone has the leisure go switch careers and go through all that bullshit if they didn't start in it when they were young.

Jenny mss Yeah now picture if you were say 35 , 36 with a job and bills to pay.. and you wanted to switch careers. They have it so it would turn away people who might make great therapists and make amazing contributions in the field.. If people have the ability and passion, they shouldn't have so many obstacles to deter people..

Most programs are competitive. I am lucky enough to have 3 near-by schools to apply to but they have a lot of pre reqs and only accept small amount. If you really want to become an OT you have to volunteer with OT's, get a lot of experience to show your passion for it and the rest will come. You'll never know if you can get in if you don;t try. How old are you exactly? The only downside is you would definitely need time to get your BA first.

Yesterday I decided to take this field in the future. I want it. Its like a calling. Need to save up to make it happen.

this video inspired me to want to be an OT 💛

Yes! I can’t wait to start the OTA program

I had stroke am at home start therapy next week.

Next January I am going to study OT

where is the LOVE button when you need it?

I see people in this video working with people with whole body movements, but I thought OT was fine motor skills? I will shortly have a bachelor's degree and I think it will be a lot easier to move into OT because it only requires a master's, I can make good money, the job availability is good, and most importantly, I can help people. I'm also very interested in the human anatomy. However, I'm torn between this and PT or PTA. I'm just not sure what the difference really is.

@GaylordHealthcare

Here are some good links to help you understand the roles of a PT and an OT. A PTA is a physical therapy assistant. You are right - OTs must have a master's degree. A PT must now have a doctorate in physical therapy. Best of luck on your decision both are great fields and you can make a huge difference in the lives of the patients you work with.

Hello there Great video :) I recently discovered what occupational therapy is and that it encompasses many different fields. I'm very excited because I feel like I've finally found a career I'd be passionate about What type of occupational therapists were featured in this video? And would you happen to know the name of the field that specializes in aiding the physically disabled? Such as the people in this video

The OTs in our video work with all kinds of patients at Gaylord including those dealing with a stroke, spinal cord injury or traumatic brain injury or those dealing with complex medical issues. Another good resource is the American Occupational Therapy Association: www.aota.org/en/Education-Careers.aspx Best of luck!

An occupational therapist will evaluate the tasks of daily living like getting dressed, cooking, shopping, getting into and out of a shower, tying shoes, personal grooming, and so forth, and see what the patient needs additional skills for or needs to learn new ways to accomplish in order to be as independent as possible
