This opportunity places you at the heart of compassionate, evidence-based care, where your assessments, adaptive strategies, and patient education spark meaningful change. Envision guiding clients through core activities of daily living, meaningful mobility, and social participation, witnessing the pride that comes with regained independence. The impact you’ll make extends beyond the clinic walls, touching families, workplaces, and communities as you help people return to hobbies, work, and everyday routines with renewed confidence. And as you pursue excellence in your field, you’ll experience the beauty of Georgia—a state offering lush forests, historic towns, and coastal charm. From the crystal waters of Lake Lanier to the winding trails of the Blue Ridge, from charming small towns to cosmopolitan city life, Georgia invites you to explore while you heal.

Location Benefits: Working in Cumming situates you in a vibrant, family-friendly region just outside Atlanta, with convenient access to diverse clinical settings, educational resources, and professional networks. You’ll enjoy a supportive community that values patient-centered care, collaboration, and professional growth. The area is renowned for its welcoming neighborhoods, excellent schools, and abundant outdoor recreation, making it easy to balance demanding clinical days with restorative downtime. For therapists seeking broader horizons, this position also offers opportunities to work in various U.S. locations through short- and longer-term assignments, enabling you to broaden clinical exposure, learn different care models, and build a diverse portfolio of experiences. Travel assignments provide exposure to urban, suburban, and rural environments, expanding your clinical reasoning, adaptability, and cultural competence while maintaining a stable, predictable schedule with guaranteed hours.

Role Specifics and Benefits: In this role, you’ll conduct comprehensive OT evaluations, develop person-centered treatment plans, and deliver therapy that enhances independence in activities of daily living, functional mobility, cognition, and fine motor skills. You’ll collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to set realistic goals, monitor progress with objective measures, and adjust interventions to suit evolving patient needs. Your responsibilities will include hands-on treatment sessions, documentation that demonstrates progress and outcomes, caregiver education, home safety assessments, and adaptive equipment recommendations. You’ll have the opportunity to mentor and learn from experienced clinicians, participate in ongoing professional development, and expand your specialty skills within the OT discipline.

Compelling benefits accompany the role. You’ll receive competitive compensation with a weekly pay range of $1,960–$2,056, reflecting your expertise and dedication. The contract includes guaranteed 40 hours per week, ensuring consistency and reliability as you plan your professional and personal commitments. A sign-on incentive or performance-based bonus acknowledges your welcome into the team, with housing assistance designed to ease transitions and reduce move-in stress. We understand that flexibility matters, so there are extension opportunities if you enjoy the environment and the impact you’re making, with avenues to continue serving patients across locations as needed. Our travel program offers comprehensive support throughout your assignment: 24/7 assistance while traveling with the company, access to a dedicated clinician liaison, and proactive problem-solving to minimize downtime and maximize your focus on patient care. You’ll also benefit from structured onboarding, evidence-based practice resources, and a culture that prioritizes evidence-informed decision-making and patient dignity.

Company Values: Our organization is built on empowerment, collaboration, and a steadfast commitment to your career advancement. We invest in your growth with mentorship, continuing education stipends, and opportunities to broaden your scope within occupational therapy—whether you’re strengthening cognitive rehabilitation, ADL coaching, or ergonomic and home-modification expertise.

We celebrate diversity, foster a supportive community, and partner with you to map a path forward in your OT career, from entry-level to expert practitioner.
