Embark on a transformative travel assignment as an Occupational Therapist in Albuquerque, New Mexico, where your rehabilitative expertise can change daily life for patients across inpatient, outpatient, and community settings. This opportunity blends clinical excellence with compassionate care, designing interventions that restore independence and empower meaningful routines. You’ll collaborate with multispecialty teams, families, and community partners to tailor therapy to each person’s goals and cultural context. While you plan impact, you’ll also discover a region famed for sunlit mesas and desert horizons. From Sandia Mountain trails to Old Town charm, New Mexico’s landscapes invite weekend exploration and outdoor recreation. Albuquerque’s welcoming healthcare community provides a solid base for a travel OT career that broadens your clinical repertoire while supporting balance in daily life.

Location benefits extend beyond the base city. You’ll have access to hospitals, clinics, and schools prioritizing rehabilitation across settings.

Even as you journey, Albuquerque serves as a convenient home base for rest, connection, and continuing education, with streamlined onboarding and ongoing support to ease transitions.

Core responsibilities include comprehensive assessments of motor, sensory, cognitive, and ADL skills; designing and implementing evidence-based interventions; and documenting progress toward measurable outcomes. You will coordinate with physicians, therapists, educators, and caregivers to optimize care, guide return to work and community participation, and plan safe discharges with home modifications. The role offers growth through exposure to adult, pediatric, and geriatric populations, with opportunities to specialize in neuro rehab, orthopedic rehab, pediatrics, or community OT. In addition to base pay, you’ll receive a contract bonus, housing assistance, and the potential for extensions. A dedicated travel team provides 24/7 support, credentialing and onboarding guidance, and clinical mentorship to help you thrive. You’ll be guaranteed 30 hours per week, with start date on 03/16/2026 and engagements across multiple sites.

Company values center on empowering staff, advancement opportunities, and a collaborative culture that elevates patient care.
