physical, cognitive, and emotional abilities to determine areas for
improvement. You will develop individualized treatment plans and
implement therapeutic activities to enhance patients' daily living
skills, focusing on activities such as bathing, dressing, grooming,
toileting, and self-feeding. You will also provide education to

activities to help patients regain independence and improve
