Red River College Polytechnic's Rehabilitation Assistant certificate equips students with the knowledge and skills to provide safe, competent rehabilitative care under the supervision of speech-language pathologists, occupational therapists, and physical therapists. The curriculum uses simulated rehabilitation scenarios to build client-safety and communication skills, and hands-on practicum rotations place students in real-world care settings. The program runs full-time over 12 months at the South Winnipeg Campus (Pembina Highway) with a September intake. Applicants with a criminal record or listed on the Child Abuse Registry or Adult Abuse Registry are not able to complete the program. Graduates are prepared to work as rehabilitation assistants supporting allied health professionals in hospitals, clinics, and community care settings, and the program leads to a certificate credential.
