This document was found at the OTPTATboard website to assist OT practitioners with guidance and collaboration with COTAs. It allows the the OT and the COTA to document a short description about the patient and the OT recommendations so that supervision and communication are maximized. There are other logs available, but this is a good example of monitoring a patient's needs and assists in determining if new goals need to be reinstated, treatments need to be adapted, and if plans need to be changed. Goals and plans are explicitly stated on this document and the OTR and the COTA can effectively manage the patient and their needs.
