 Here are my top three reasons why I enjoy being an occupational therapist. Reason number one, my expertise in the practice of hand therapy in the past has granted me the ability to catch a medical error and to advocate for the individual who is affected by this medical error. Reason number two, I love working with individuals from diverse backgrounds with diverse experiences. I get to do this each and every day as an occupational therapist. Lastly, reason number three, my patients enjoy my fun interactive and engaging sessions. They love occupational therapy.
