For my future career I want to become a Physical or Occupational Therapist. Is there anyway to start as an assistant and then see if I want additional schooling? Also, how do you decide to be a Physical Therapist or an Occupational Therapist?

I am a senior in high school and I enjoy sports and performing arts but I also enjoy working with children and helping people in general. My career goal is to go into the physical or occupational therapy field and run my own practice. I also want to graduate debt-free.

How do you treat a patient in a healthcare facility who wants to do everything by themselves and resist your help? Especially if they're older and don't believe in your skill. I might get in trouble if I just have another clinician treat them if I'm assigned to. #Spring25

I'm studying to be an Occupational Therapy Assistant, and I need to be better at finding solutions to helping people who don't want help.

What jobs related to occupational therapy are available to people with a bachelors in kinesiology?

What kind of jobs related to occupational therapy are available to someone with a kinesiology BS who wants to continue their education and get a graduate degree in OT? I'm currently a sophomore in undergrad, but I'm thinking about what jobs I can get with a KIN degree after I get my bachelors...
