Rehabilitation therapy assistants, or RTAs, work with occupational therapists and physiotherapists in a clinical setting to aid in the recovery of patients.
To launch a career in this health field, you need to graduate from a post-secondary rehabilitation assistant program like the Rehabilitation Therapy Assistant diploma program at CDI College. It will prepare you with the knowledge and skills employers are looking for.
