Northside Hospital - Forsyth
Mid Level
Embark on a transformative journey as a Travel Occupational Therapist in Georgia, anchored in the welcoming community of Cumming, with dynamic opportunities to deliver care across the United States. In this specialty, your expertise in promoting independence, enabling everyday function, and restoring autonomy will empower individuals to conquer daily challenges and reclaim meaningful participation in school, work, and home life. Picture yourself applying evidence-based evaluation techniques, setting personalized goals, and implementing engaging, client-centered interventions that adapt to diverse settings—from acute care and inpatient rehab to outpatient clinics and community programs. Your impact will extend beyond the clinic walls as you mentor families and collaborate with interdisciplinary teams, turning each therapeutic moment into a stepping stone toward greater independence. Georgia’s charm complements your professional journey: the sparkling shores of Lake Lanier, the protected trails of the North Georgia foothills, and vibrant small towns offer a backdrop where outdoor exploration and southern hospitality nourish both your spirit and your practice. Cumming itself blends scenic surroundings with convenient access to Atlanta’s cultural experiences, giving you opportunities to unwind after fulfilling days of meaningful work.
Location Benefits: Working in Cumming places you in a thriving, family-friendly region that values wellness and community connections. You’ll enjoy the balance of a calm, welcoming locale with proximity to urban amenities, allowing weekend explorations and re-energizing breaks in nature. The opportunity to travel across the U.S. expands your horizon, exposing you to a mosaic of clinical environments, patient populations, and care models that broaden your OT toolbox. Expect rich professional experiences—interdisciplinary rounds, hospital to home transitions, school-based consults, and specialized rehabilitation programs—each strengthening your clinical reasoning, adaptability, and leadership. The flexibility inherent in travel assignments means you can shape your career path: choose assignments that align with your evolving interests, whether you’re drawn to pediatrics, geriatrics, or adult rehabilitation, while discovering new communities and regional practices along the way. In every location, you’ll find networks of peers and mentors who share your commitment to client-centered care and professional integrity.
Role Specifics and Benefits: As the Travel Occupational Therapist, your core responsibilities will include comprehensive assessments to determine functional limitations and participation restrictions, development of goal-directed treatment plans, and implementation of evidence-based interventions designed to improve fine motor skills, UE dexterity, ADLs, IADLs, cognitive-motor integration, and environmental adaptations. You’ll design therapeutic activities that are engaging, goal-specific, and culturally responsive, with baseline measurements and progression benchmarks that demonstrate meaningful progress. You’ll coordinate with families, caregivers, educators, and employers to optimize home safety, workplace accommodations, and school-based supports, ensuring smooth transitions from hospital to community settings. The role offers substantial room for professional growth within the specialty, with opportunities to pursue advanced certifications, take on mentoring roles, participate in quality improvement initiatives, and contribute to program development. You’ll receive a competitive compensation package that reflects the expertise you bring, including a sign-on or completion bonus, housing assistance, and opportunities for contract extensions that extend your impact. You’ll have access to generous continuing education allowances and structured professional development to keep you at the forefront of OT practice. We provide 24/7 support while traveling with the company, ensuring you have guidance, resources, and a responsive point of contact whenever you need it. You are guaranteed 40.0 hours per week, with a predictable schedule that respects your work-life balance while delivering high-quality client outcomes. The weekly pay ranges from $2,104 to $2,138, recognizing the value of your time, expertise, and the consistent care you deliver. Start Date is 02/09/2026, and assignments are described in Weeks, offering flexibility to align with career goals and personal plans.
