OT Student Fieldwork in Assistive Technology
Janice Reese, AT4Kids Center director, is also an OT with a passion for educating the next level of clinicians about the importance of using assistive technology to serve client needs. Our center serves as a Level 1 fieldwork educational site for students from the OT Assistant program at Roane State Community College, as well as the Master’s Program in OT at Tennessee Wesleyan University.
