Description

As a certified ergotherapist, you give your clients a piece of independence back through treatment and enable an improvement in their quality of life.

Specifically, this means supporting them through activities and counseling to regain their ability to function in daily life in the areas of self-care, productivity, and leisure after an illness.

You work with people of all ages.

The ergotherapy training in Heilbronn lasts three years and requires a secondary school diploma (or a primary school diploma + vocational qualification with a duration of 2 years).

Ergotherapy is considered a medically prescribed remedy. As an ergotherapist, you use a variety of treatment methods to treat the different limitations of your clients.


This includes activities such as:
therapeutic work with, for example, developmentally delayed children, treatment of mentally ill people, adaptation of aids (such as splints, walkers, living space), showing employment opportunities for older people


Job opportunities:

As an ergotherapist, you have many job opportunities in various fields, such as: rehabilitation clinics, hospitals, health centers, workshops for people with disabilities, nursing homes, ergotherapy practices (employed or self-employed), facilities for the care of mentally and emotionally ill people, early intervention centers, special kindergartens and schools.
