Help prevent and control the spread of COVID-19

Ontario's Ministry of Health is looking for experienced health care providers, like occupational therapists, to help provincial efforts to prevent and control the spread of COVID-19.

The Ministry of Health is looking for: health care providers who may be working part-time and want to and are able to increase their work hours, former health care providers who are retired and are prepared to return to employment, or anyone who is inactive with their regulatory college or registered but not currently employed.

Interested current and former regulatory health profession registrants are being asked to consider helping prevent and control the spread of COVID-19.

If you are interested, please register with Ontario’s Health Workforce Matching Portal: onhealthworkforcematching.ca

If College registration is required, please contact us at [email protected]. We will issue a temporary registration without fees.

Both associations (OSOT and CAOT) are also waiving membership fees to provide professional liability insurance for returning occupational therapists. Please contact the associations for more information about these arrangements.

We thank you and appreciate the dedication of all of Ontario's regulated health professionals, especially during this time. The people of Ontario have shown remarkable strength as we continue to work together to respond to COVID-19.
