Who is a Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist?
Recreational therapy is a recognized human service profession that utilizes recreation
involvement as a means to psychological and physical health, recovery, and well-being.
Recreational therapy has been a recognized form of health care and human service provision for over four decades.
The Joint Commission for the Accreditation of Health care Organizations (JCAHO)
defines a Recreational Therapist, Qualified in the Comprehensive Accreditation Manual for Hospitals (1995):
As a professional, a Recreation Therapist needs to demonstrate to the public
(employers and consumers) that she/he has the knowledge, skill and ability to provide
therapeutic recreation services. NCTRC was awarded federal trademark of the title
“Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist” and the mark “CTRS” by the United States
Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). The ability to protect the consumer is strengthened
with USPTO trademark registration. The trademark registration provides significant legal
protection against unauthorized users of NCTRC’s marks. Only those individuals who meet
and maintain adherence to NCTRC certification program standards are allowed to use the
title Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist and the designation: “CTRS”.
