Powerback - PERM - Windward Gardens -R10A75
Mid Level
Embark on a transformative journey as an Occupational Therapist in Camden, Maine, where your expertise can illuminate the path to independence and everyday success for patients across the lifespan. This is your opportunity to apply a compassionate, evidence-based approach within a vibrant coastal community, where your clinical insights will help people reclaim function, confidence, and quality of life. Picture yourself collaborating with families, caregivers, and a committed interdisciplinary team, crafting personalized treatment plans that blend purposeful activity, meaningful goals, and measurable progress. In Camden, your work will resonate not only within hospital or clinic walls but in the rhythms of daily life—through home visits, community reintegration, and adaptive strategies that empower individuals to participate fully in the activities they love. Alongside the professional impact, you’ll have the chance to explore Maine’s famed beauty—crisp shoreline walks, rolling coastal hills, lighthouses guiding your days, and a thriving local culture that celebrates art, seafood, and outstanding outdoor experiences. This assignment blends clinical excellence with a chance to savor a uniquely scenic and hospitable corner of New England.

Location benefits and opportunities for variety: Camden sits along Maine’s storied coastline, offering a serene yet resource-rich environment for healthcare professionals. You’ll enjoy a high standard of living, low stress commuting, and access to outdoor recreation—from kayaking along quiet coves to hiking in nearby coastal forests. For clinicians drawn to broader horizons, there’s also the prospect of working in diverse locations across the United States through our expansive network, enabling you to broaden your professional lens while maintaining the Camden base as a supportive anchor. The role provides a balance between structured clinical duties and the flexibility that seasoned therapists appreciate, allowing you to tailor pathways to your interests—hand therapy, neurorehabilitation, geriatrics, pediatrics, or home health—within a framework that values continuous growth, mentorship, and collaboration. Camden’s welcoming communities, museum and cultural venues, farmers’ markets, and renowned seafood dining create an environment where professional life and personal enjoyment harmonize. You’ll have ample time to recharge between visits while knowing you’re delivering care that makes a tangible difference in families’ daily lives.

Role specifics, responsibilities, and benefits: In this Occupational Therapist position, you’ll conduct comprehensive assessments, develop individualized treatment plans, and implement evidence-informed interventions to improve motor skills, cognition, sensation, endurance, and functional independence. You’ll design and supervise therapeutic activities, guide adaptive equipment use and home modification strategies, and coordinate with physicians, nurses, and social workers to ensure seamless, patient-centered care. You’ll document progress, adjust goals, and communicate with families to empower caregivers with practical strategies that extend gains beyond sessions. The role emphasizes ongoing professional growth within the specialty, including opportunities to deepen expertise in pediatrics, adult neurology, or geriatric rehab, along with participation in in-service training and multidisciplinary case conferences. Compensation is competitive, and the package includes a bonus structure, housing assistance, and the potential for contract extensions based on performance and organizational need. You’ll receive robust support from a team dedicated to enabling your success on the road, including access to clinical mentors, evidence-based practice resources, and a 24/7 support line designed for travel assignments. Travel logistics are streamlined through dedicated coordinators, ensuring smooth onboarding and ongoing assistance as you move between settings or return to Camden’s familiar environment.

Company values: Our organization is grounded in empowering staff to grow professionally while maintaining a caring, respectful, and collaborative work culture. You’ll join a team that honors your clinical judgment, values open communication, and invests in continuous learning, with clear pathways for advancement and opportunities to contribute to program development. Expect mentorship, ongoing education stipends, and a supportive network committed to your well-being and professional fulfillment, so you can focus on what you do best—delivering exceptional, person-centered care that improves lives.

Call to action: If you’re ready to apply your OT expertise in a beautiful Atlantic setting while enjoying meaningful professional development and stable, well-compensated travel work, this is your moment. Begin a rewarding chapter with a company that recognizes your impact and is dedicated to your growth and satisfaction. Start date is 01/26/2026, with a contract aimed at several weeks and potential extensions based on performance and needs.
