AN ACT CONCERNING THE SCOPE OF PRACTICE OF OCCUPATIONAL THERAPISTS AND OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY ASSISTANTS.

SB 1052 updates the legal boundaries of what licensed occupational therapists and assistants can do in Connecticut. It amends Chapter 376a of state statutes to modernize their scope of practice, clarifying current permitted activities. The bill directly affects occupational therapists, assistants, and their workplaces (like clinics and hospitals) by defining their authorized duties. This change ensures regulations reflect current professional standards without adding new requirements or restrictions.
