Overview

IMMANUEL HOSPITAL - ACUTE CARE

Schedule Requirements: 2 weekend shifts per month (Sat or Sun) and 2 holidays per year

Compensation: $47.50/hr with time and a half pay for holidays

As an Occupational Therapist at Immanuel, you'll help our patients regain their independence and quality of life so they can safely go about their daily activities.

You'll work alongside physicians, physical therapists, speech therapists, and other health professionals to assess patients, develop a plan of care, and carry out their treatment plan. You'll see a variety of patients daily with issues in several areas, including orthopedic, neurological, sensory, and cancer recovery, to name a few. You'll evaluate and re-evaluate patients and provide physicians with updates on improvements to the patient's daily life. You're truly the bridge between physical therapy and speech therapy.

To thrive in this role, you must be flexible and adaptable. You'll care for all patient populations presenting with a variety of conditions. You need to be extremely organized and efficient. You'll see many patients each workday and will be required to document all evaluations, treatments, and status changes. Most importantly, you must be positive, personable, and motivating. While the entire care team works to treat illnesses and injuries, therapists truly motivate patients to get active and get better. It can be a long road for some patients, and a therapist who remains upbeat and energetic can make all the difference.
