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.
