This dedicated travel opportunity places you at the forefront of rehabilitation, blending clinical expertise with compassionate guidance to support individuals recovering from injury, illness, or neurological challenges. Picture yourself partnering with diverse care teams, devising creative, person-centered interventions, and seeing tangible improvements in mobility, self-care, and community participation. Your expertise will illuminate the path from assessment through discharge, turning goals into attainable milestones while you inspire hope and resilience in every patient you serve. Colorado’s rugged beauty and varied landscapes frame your professional experience, inviting moments of reflection and renewal that sustain your passion for allied health. Separately, you’ll discover why this state captivates professionals who crave outdoor adventures, vibrant towns, and opportunities to unwind in nature after meaningful days of care.
Delta, Colorado, offers a unique blend of small-town warmth and access to some of the state’s most striking scenery. The region provides convenient proximity to outdoor recreation, from nearby rivers and canyons to scenic trails that invite you to unwind after a busy day of clinical work. Working in Delta gives you firsthand exposure to rural and urban healthcare dynamics, allowing you to tailor treatment plans that address varied living environments and community resources. The appeal of this location is complemented by the flexibility to engage in travel across the United States, enriching your professional experience with diverse patient populations, care settings, and regional practice patterns. You’ll benefit from a supportive network that values your well-being and professional growth, while enjoying the chance to build lasting connections with families, caregivers, and multidisciplinary teams who share your commitment to excellent outcomes.
As an Occupational Therapist on this assignment, you’ll lead comprehensive evaluations and implement targeted interventions that promote independence in daily activities. Your responsibilities will span initial screenings, detailed goal setting, evidence-based treatment planning, and ongoing progress documentation. You’ll design adaptive strategies and select assistive devices to enhance function, safety, and participation in activities such as self-care, community mobility, leisure, and work-related tasks. You’ll coordinate with occupational, physical, and speech-language colleagues, nursing staff, and family members to ensure seamless transitions across inpatient, outpatient, and home health settings. You will educate patients and caregivers on home modification, energy conservation techniques, and compensatory strategies, while also championing fall prevention and safety training. Your role includes discharge planning, outcome measurement, and continuous quality improvement, ensuring care is both person-centered and outcome-driven. This position supports professional growth through mentorship, access to continuing education, and opportunities to deepen specialization within pediatrics, geriatrics, neurorehabilitation, or hand therapy. You’ll enjoy a supportive environment that recognizes your expertise and actively cultivates leadership capabilities within the OT practice. The role also emphasizes collaboration with coding and billing teams to ensure accurate documentation and appropriate reimbursement for services, reinforcing the integrity of care you deliver. In addition to clinical duties, you’ll participate in community outreach initiatives, wellness education seminars, and program development activities designed to expand access to occupational therapy in under served settings. The overall package features a sign-on bonus, housing assistance, and extension opportunities, with the security of guaranteed 40 hours per week and weekly pay between $2,073 and $2,207. Start date is set for January 26, 2026, and duration is defined in weeks to fit project needs. Acknowledging the realities of travel, you’ll have 24/7 support from our dedicated traveling team to address scheduling, housing, and clinical questions as they arise, ensuring you can focus on delivering exceptional care.
The company is founded on empowering its staff to grow, celebrate professional milestones, and pursue continuous advancement within a supportive, collaborative culture. You’ll find mentors who value curiosity, integrity, and patient-centered practice, along with structured pathways for advancing into senior OT roles, specialty certifications, or leadership positions within multidisciplinary care networks. Benefit from transparent communication, reliable scheduling, and resources that reduce administrative burdens, allowing you to devote more time to meaningful patient interaction and meaningful outcomes. The organization is committed to fostering a healthy work-life balance even while traveling, with tools and processes designed to minimize burnout and maximize clinical satisfaction. You will be part of a community that honors your expertise, compensates you fairly, and champions your professional development through ongoing education stipends, skill-building workshops, and opportunities to broaden your scope across populations and care settings.
