The nature of the job as a Recreational Therapist is to provide 1:1 care to
individuals with developmental disabilities in home and community-based
settings by providing a systematic process that utilizes
recreation and other activity-based interventions to address the assessed
needs of individuals with illnesses and/or disabling conditions, as a means to
psychological and physical health, recovery and well-being. Further, "Recreational Therapy” means a treatment service designed to restore,
remediate and rehabilitate a person’s level of functioning and independence
in life activities, to promote health and wellness as well as reduce or
eliminate the activity limitations and restrictions to participation in life
situations caused by an illness or disabling condition. Recreational Therapy supports are supports provided under the Indiana
Division of Disability and Rehabilitative Supports (DDRS) consisting of a
medically approved recreational program to restore, remediate, or
rehabilitate an individual in order to improve the individual’s functioning and independence, or reduce or eliminate the effects of an individual’s disability.
All Recreational Therapists must assist individuals supported with one or more of the following: self-care, self-direction, expressive or receptive language, ambulation or mobility, learning, ADLs, independent living, economic self-sufficiency, physical activity, or community participation. All Recreational Therapists will be able to manage their own daily and weekly scheduled sessions by communicating with the individual, their family, or other members of the Individualized Support Team. All Recreational Therapists will follow the APIE process with the individuals they support. Standardized Assessment tools are provided to the therapist by Assisted Independence. Templates for treatment plans and program plans are provided to the therapist by Assisted Independence. Implementing these treatment plans include organizing and directing home and/or community-based activities for the individual supported. These activities may include adaptive sports, dramatics, arts and crafts, social activities, volunteer opportunities, and other recreational supports designed to restore, remediate, or rehabilitate. All Recreational Therapists will document each session with a narrative note and goal tracking prompts accompanied by the date and time of the session. Individuals supported will be re-assessed and evaluated on an annual basis to make any changes to the treatment plan. All Recreational Therapists will attend Individualized Support Team meetings for the individuals they support. All Recreational Therapists will be trained in and complete Incident Reporting accurately as needed.
