This internship helps develop clinical knowledge, communication skills, and professional experience required for certification and future employment in the field.

What kinds of hands-on experiences can I expect during an OT Internship?

As an OT Intern, you’ll typically gain direct experience by assisting with patient assessments, planning and facilitating therapeutic activities, and documenting patient progress under the supervision of a licensed Occupational Therapist. You may also participate in interdisciplinary team meetings and observe or contribute to the development of individualized treatment plans. The variety and depth of hands-on experience can vary by setting, but most internships ensure you’re exposed to essential clinical and administrative aspects of occupational therapy. These opportunities are designed to help you apply classroom knowledge to real-life patient care, boost your confidence, and enhance your professional skill set.
