Scottsbluff, NE
Contracted
Regional West Medical Center
Mid Level
Embark on a rewarding travel opportunity as an Occupational Therapist in Scottsbluff, Nebraska, where your expertise will empower individuals to reclaim independence and participate fully in daily life. This specialty-focused role places you at the heart of rehabilitation, guiding patients through comprehensive evaluations, tailored intervention plans, and collaborative care that spans the continuum from acute to community-based settings. You’ll apply evidence-based approaches to promote fine motor skills, cognitive-communication goals, visual-perceptual processing, upper-extremity function, and adaptive strategies that enable meaningful occupation. Each treatment plan is crafted with patient goals at the center, honoring individual stories and the unique rhythms of recovery. This role not only strengthens your clinical competencies within occupational therapy but also cultivates leadership as you mentor others, share best practices, and contribute to a culture of excellence in care.
Nebraska’s Scottsbluff area welcomes you with a blend of professional opportunity and natural beauty. Working here means embracing a community that values its clinicians and supports a balanced lifestyle. The region’s expansive skies, nearby bluffs, parks, rivers, and trails provide ample outdoor recreation after a rewarding day in the clinic. For clinicians who appreciate variety, this assignment is designed with flexibility in mind and open avenues to work across multiple locations in the United States, offering diverse clinical experiences while maintaining a stable, predictable schedule. The combination of a supportive community, accessible outdoor leisure, and the chance to broaden your professional footprint makes Scottsbluff an inviting launchpad for a thriving travel OT career.
Role specifics and benefits include a structured schedule with guaranteed hours and strong compensation. You will conduct initial assessments, interpret data, design patient-centered treatment plans, and implement evidence-based interventions focused on functional independence, safety, and participation in daily activities. Collaboration is a core element: you’ll work with physicians, therapists (PT, SLP), social workers, case managers, and school or community partners to coordinate care, facilitate smooth transitions, and ensure effective discharge planning. Documentation will reflect progress toward goals, with ongoing adjustments to optimize outcomes. In addition to clinical duties, you’ll engage in patient and family education about home programs, environmental modifications, and realistic recovery timelines. The position emphasizes professional growth within the specialty, offering opportunities for mentoring, continuing education, and expanded responsibilities as you demonstrate impact. The package includes competitive pay ranging from $2,030 to $2,176 per week, with guaranteed 40 hours per week, and a start date of December 17, 2025. Housing assistance is available to ease transitions, and there are extension opportunities for those who wish to extend their assignment and deepen patient relationships. A dedicated, 24/7 support team stands ready to assist while you travel, coordinating logistics, credentialing, and on-site needs so you can focus on delivering high-quality care.
Company values center on empowerment, collaboration, and career advancement. The organization is committed to creating a supportive work environment where your clinical judgment is respected and your professional development is prioritized. You’ll find mentorship, access to ongoing education, and a culture that celebrates proactive problem-solving and teamwork across disciplines. This is more than a job—it’s a pathway to deepen your OT expertise, expand your professional network, and contribute to a mission that prioritizes patient-centered outcomes and clinician well-being.
