Section 4181(a)(1) of the California Code of Regulations (CCR) states: Appropriate supervision of an occupational therapy assistant includes, at a minimum: The weekly review and inspection of all aspects of occupational therapy services by the supervising occupational therapist. (Weekly review should occur once each calendar week.) Section 4181(a)(3) also requires the supervising occupational therapist to provide periodic on-site supervision and observation of the assigned client care rendered by the occupational therapy assistant. Periodic review is defined in Section 4181(e) as at least once “every 30 days.” Section 4183(b) also requires all documented client-related services by the limited permit holder or student shall be reviewed and cosigned by the supervising occupational therapist. Based upon the supervisor /supervisee working relationship and the type of services that are being supervised, the supervising OT may chose either of these or more frequently, as he/she determines
