    A Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA) plays a crucial role in the rehabilitation and care of patients with various physical, mental, or emotional conditions.

    The primary goal of a COTA is to assist individuals in developing, recovering, improving, and maintaining the skills needed for daily living and working.
