As the Occupational Therapist, you’ll assess functional abilities, design individualized treatment plans, and implement therapeutic activities that improve cognition, fine and gross motor skills, coordination, and independence in daily tasks. You’ll collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to set realistic goals, measure progress, and adjust interventions to meet evolving needs. The role offers opportunities to expand scope across inpatient, outpatient, and community-based settings, with a focus on evidence-based practice, patient-centered care, and family education. You’ll have access to competitive compensation with a weekly pay range of approximately $2,060 to $2,202, reflecting your skills and the complexity of caseload. A guaranteed 36.0 hours per week ensures stability and predictable scheduling, while the potential for extension opportunities allows you to continue advancing your career with ongoing assignments. The package also includes housing assistance to ease transition, along with a welcoming bonus structure designed to recognize your expertise from day one. Throughout travel and placement, you’ll benefit from 24/7 support from a dedicated team, ensuring you have guidance, resources, and problem-solving assistance whenever you need it.
