The Interdisciplinary Therapy Assistant diploma program prepares students to work in today's interdisciplinary health-care systems. This program will provide students with a strong occupational and physical therapy assistant background, and incorporate essential assistant-level skills in speech language therapy and therapeutic recreation. Equipped with skills in these four rehabilitation disciplines, students will be prepared to meet industry demand and work in various general therapy, rehabilitation, as well as discipline-specific positions.
If you enjoy helping people and want a career assisting patients to overcome injuries, or impairments, this diploma program could be for you. The program delivers theoretical knowledge and hands-on skills using a balance of discipline-specific and interdisciplinary courses. |
