Maine’s beauty is a backdrop to your professional journey. From the rugged charm of coastal towns and the serenity of forested hills to vibrant autumn foliage and tranquil rivers, Maine offers a wealth of inspiration for healing and growth. Picture winding drives along scenic byways, fresh-air breaks between sessions, and weekends spent exploring state parks, lakes, and small towns that foster a sense of belonging and well-being. The state’s well-balanced communities provide an inviting environment for practicing OT with a focus on meaningful occupations, while you also have the opportunity to extend your practice across varied locations nationwide, expanding your professional horizons and enriching your client perspectives.

Facilitate home safety evaluations and recommendations for adaptive equipment or environmental modifications to maximize independence.
- Growth opportunities: Engage with a diverse patient population and explore specialty avenues within OT, including pediatrics, geriatrics, mental health, wheelchair and adaptive technology consulting, and community-based rehabilitation. The role supports professional development, credentialing guidance, and pathways toward expanded responsibilities as you demonstrate impact and leadership within interdisciplinary teams.
- Competitive benefits: This position offers a compelling weekly pay range of $1,934 to $1,994, reflecting experience and placement. In addition to competitive compensation, you’ll have access to a sign-on bonus, housing assistance, and potential extension opportunities to continue your invaluable contributions beyond the initial assignment.
