In this specialty, you’ll design and implement personalized therapy plans, measure progress, and collaborate with families, caregivers, and clinical teams to ensure each journey advances with purpose. You’ll guide clients through functional activities, adaptive equipment, and therapeutic strategies that build confidence, resilience, and lasting well-being. This opportunity nurtures your clinical leadership while honoring the art of compassionate care. Maine offers a tapestry of experiences that enrich both work and life: the scenic Kennebec River, tranquil lakes bordered by pine forests, and towns that celebrate community, culture, and outdoor recreation.

Location Benefits
Skowhegan sits in a region renowned for its welcoming communities and rich outdoor accessibility, making it an ideal setting for a stimulating occupational therapy practice. You’ll enjoy a strong sense of connection with patients and families who value thorough evaluation, creative interventions, and measurable outcomes. Beyond Skowhegan, the program offers opportunities to work in various locations across the United States, translating your core OT skills to a range of clinical environments—from outpatient clinics to inpatient settings and community-based programs. This flexibility broadens your professional horizon while rooting you in the unique character of Maine’s landscapes and cycles of seasons, which can inform adaptive approaches and patient education. The choice to travel within the network provides a robust support system, including streamlined housing options, relocation assistance as needed, and a consistent framework for onboarding and practice standards. You’ll benefit from the balance of a steady community assignment with the adventure of exploring new settings, all while surrounded by colleagues who share a commitment to quality care, ethical practice, and professional camaraderie. Skowhegan’s amenities, access to regional healthcare resources, and proximity to larger hubs create a practical base that respects work-life balance and clinician well-being while you explore opportunities across the country.
Role Specifics and Benefits
As the Occupational Therapist in this assignment, you’ll conduct comprehensive assessments of motor function, cognition, visual-perceptual skills, and daily living activities to establish realistic, measurable goals. You’ll design and implement treatment plans that emphasize functional independence, ADL/IADL task performance, balance and mobility, motor control, coordination, and adaptive equipment training. You’ll partner with patients to set meaningful objectives—returning to school or work, resuming self-care routines, or engaging in meaningful leisure activities—and monitor progress with documentation that supports outcomes and payer requirements. The role includes collaborative work with physicians, nurses, social workers, and caregivers to ensure seamless care transitions and continuity. You’ll have opportunities for professional growth within pediatrics, geriatrics, or rehabilitative specialties as your interests evolve, with access to mentorship, continuing education resources, and evidenced-based practice updates. Compensation reflects competitive benefits: a guaranteed weekly pay of $1,998-$2,072, with a commitment of 36.0 hours per week and the potential for extension opportunities that align with program needs. A signing bonus may be available, along with housing assistance to ease relocation or travel logistics. You’ll receive comprehensive support from a travel-savvy organization that offers 24/7 assistance on the road, including clinical guidance, scheduling coordination, and emergency coverage should you need it. Start date is 12/15/2025, anchoring your timeline while you settle into a rewarding routine within a national network dedicated to excellence in OT care. Final compensation packages and guaranteed hours will be confirmed during the hiring process, and all figures cited here are estimates to be refined at offer.

Our organization is built on empowerment, professional development, and a supportive culture where clinicians are encouraged to lead, innovate, and mentor others. We champion career advancement through structured pathways, access to advanced certifications, and opportunities to diversify practice settings. You’ll work within teams that prioritize empathy, integrity, and collaboration, ensuring you have a strong voice in patient planning and program improvement. The environment is designed to reduce burnout and promote well-being, with reliable administrative support, transparent feedback mechanisms, and a shared commitment to delivering high-quality, patient-centered OT services.
