Powerback - Contract - Willows Post Acute -R09A43
Mid Level
Embark on a transformative journey as an Occupational Therapist in our dedicated travel program, where your expertise unlocks independence and enriches the everyday lives of patients across diverse settings. In this role, you’ll assess movement, cognition, and participation in daily activities, design personalized interventions, and partner with families, schools, and care teams to turn goals into achievable steps. Imagine the pride of watching a client regain a hand function that opens doors to school, hobbies, and work, or guiding a teen toward self-care routines that boost confidence and autonomy. This assignment begins February 23, 2026 in Willows, California, spanning several weeks with guaranteed 35 hours per week and a competitive weekly pay range of $2,384 to $2,510. California’s rich landscape offers more than a backdrop; it invites you to explore communities along the Sacramento Valley, rolling farmland, and nearby outdoor escapes that refresh your perspective and fuel your clinical curiosity. Separately, you’ll experience the beauty of the state—from serene river trails to vibrant farmers markets—creating a balanced rhythm of professional rigor and personal renewal.

Willows is a welcoming base with a strong sense of community, reasonable commute options, and access to healthcare networks that support collaborative practice. The opportunity to travel to additional locations across the United States means you can broaden your clinical repertoire, encounter a spectrum of patient populations, and grow your professional resilience while maintaining a stable, generous schedule. Whether you’re working in a clinic, hospital, or school-based setting, you’ll benefit from a supportive ecosystem that values your OT perspective as central to patient outcomes—and you’ll discover niche cases that challenge and advance your specialization in occupational therapy.

In this role you’ll conduct comprehensive OT evaluations, develop evidence-based treatment plans, implement interventions to improve self-care, motor skills, dexterity, and cognitive engagement, and guide adaptive equipment recommendations and home modifications. You’ll document progress in medical records, coordinate with multidisciplinary teams, and provide education to patients and families to sustain gains after discharge. The position fosters growth in a specialized field, with opportunities to advance toward leadership responsibilities, mentor junior therapists, and pursue continuing education. Benefits include a welcome bonus, housing assistance, and contract extension opportunities, ensuring stability while you explore new environments. You’ll also have access to 24/7 support while you travel with the company, with a dedicated operations team ready to assist with housing, travel logistics, licensure requirements, and clinical questions.

Our company is built on a purpose: to empower our clinicians to grow, innovate, and deliver compassionate care wherever the assignment takes them. We invest in your professional development, offer clear pathways for advancement within pediatrics, geriatrics, and rehab sciences, and cultivate a respectful, collaborative culture where your insights shape care plans and outcomes. You’ll join a network of like-minded therapists who share a commitment to patient-centered practice, work-life balance, and continual learning.
