OT Potential Podcast | Occupational Therapy CEUs #115 Intro to SNF OT with Trent Brown
Hot take: I loved working in a Skilled Nursing Facility.
Skilled nursing facilities are one of the highest paid settings for occupational therapy professionals. And about one-fifth of us work in one.
But, work in one can have a bad rap.
In today’s intro to SNF OT course, we’ll walk through the common challenges, and immense opportunities of working in a SNF. We’ll cover the specific things you need to know, from payment models to common assessments.
And, we’ll paint a picture of how you as an OT can really be a driver of culture and care in this unique and important setting.
We’ll be joined by Trent Brown, MOT, OTR/L, ATP, CGCP, CFPS, BCG, a practicing occupational therapist, who is also a part of the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) as an assistant office director with a focus on developing and operating quality improvement programs, particularly in SNFs.
