This hands-on approach allows students to gain experience in their chosen field while building relationships and their resumes.

This 2-year Ontario College Diploma program gives you the theoretical knowledge and practical skills to work in a support role under the direction of, and in collaboration with, an occupational therapist and/or physiotherapist. As valued members of the health care team, Occupational Therapy and Physiotherapy Assistants work in a complex health care environment. Considered front line workers they assist in the assessment, planning, and implementation of rehabilitation treatment plans and programs developed to restore and maximize physical function and occupational performance.

Occupational Therapy and Physiotherapy Assistants help support clients to effectively cope with limitations in movement and activities of daily living, whether temporary or permanent, during and following recovery. Graduates of this program are ready for a career in a variety of health care settings including acute and complex continuing care, mental health and long-term care facilities, community agencies, vocational rehabilitation centres, children's treatment centres and private clinics.

Field Placement
Students are required to complete 510 clinical field placement hours over three semesters prior to graduation. Placements will begin in semester two with 150 hour Occupational Therapy OR Physiotherapy placement. The next placement is 165 hours in length and occurs in semester three. Students will be assigned to whichever profession they have not yet completed. For example, if a student has a semester two placement in a physiotherapy clinic, their semester three placement will be in an occupational therapy setting. In semester 4, the last placement will be in either an Occupational Therapy or Physiotherapy setting for 195 hours. These placements provide the opportunity to apply classroom studies to an actual work situation and gain extensive on-the-job training.
