In this role, you’ll apply evidence?based occupational therapy across diverse clinical settings, partnering with dedicated clinicians to craft personalized plans that address physical, cognitive, and sensory challenges. Imagine the impact you can make—from supporting adults in regaining independence with daily activities to guiding children and families through meaningful participation in school, play, and community life. Your work will be guided by compassion, clinical excellence, and a patient?centered approach, delivering measurable improvements in function and quality of life. California’s vibrant landscapes provide a backdrop for professional purpose and personal renewal, from the majestic Sierra Nevada and redwood groves to sunlit coastlines and scenic farmland—an inspiring setting to sustain your energy and commitment. Location benefits begin with Willows’ welcoming community and the robust support network our team provides to travelers. You’ll enjoy a setting that values work?life balance, with structured assignments designed to maximize clinical impact while offering predictable hours. Willows sits in a convenient hub for exploration, yet remains a gateway to broader opportunities across the U.S. as you participate in a travel program that exposes you to a spectrum of practice environments. This role also opens the door to working in multiple locations nationwide, expanding your professional footprint and enriching your OT toolkit through exposure to diverse patient populations, regulatory landscapes, and interdisciplinary collaboration. As part of our travel program, you’ll receive 24/7 support from a dedicated team, ensuring seamless logistics, clinical guidance, and troubleshooting wherever your assignments take you. We understand that the journey matters as much as the care you provide, and we’re invested in making every step smoother, from housing options to travel arrangements and ongoing mentorship. In this position, the responsibilities and opportunities for growth are aligned to elevate your clinical practice and your career trajectory. Your day?to?day duties will include performing comprehensive OT evaluations, interpreting assessment findings, and designing evidence?based, goal?oriented treatment plans that address activities of daily living, functional mobility, cognitive processing, sensory integration, and fine motor skills. You’ll implement therapeutic interventions, monitor progress, adjust plans as needed, and collaborate with physicians, physical therapists, speech therapists, social workers, and educators to ensure cohesive, patient?centered care. You’ll educate patients and families on home programs, adaptive equipment, safety strategies, and durable medical equipment use, with a focus on empowering self?management and long?term success. Documentation will be precise and timely to support care continuity and regulatory compliance. The role provides substantial professional growth: opportunities to pursue specialty certifications, contribute to program development, lead patient?education initiatives, and mentor junior staff. Competitive benefits accompany your clinical impact, including a competitive compensation package, a sign?on or completion bonus, housing assistance, and the chance to extend your assignment when desired. With guaranteed hours of 35 per week and a start date of 02/16/2026, you’ll have a stable foundation while you explore diverse clinical settings and patient populations. Remember that the weekly pay ranges from $2,402 to $2,520, reflecting your qualifications and the responsibilities you’ll undertake. The program is designed to honor your expertise while offering flexible extension opportunities that recognize your value and reliability. Our company values are deeply rooted in empowering staff to grow, learn, and lead within a supportive ecosystem. You’ll join a culture that prioritizes professional development, ongoing education, and clear pathways to progression. We invest in your success through mentorship from seasoned clinicians, access to professional development funds, and structured performance feedback that helps you refine your practice and expand your scope. Beyond clinical excellence, we foster a collaborative atmosphere where your voice matters and your well?being is a priority. Our promise is not only to support you in delivering exceptional patient care but also to nurture your career aspirations, whether that means advancing to senior OT roles, pursuing specialized certifications, or taking on leadership responsibilities within the travel program.
