In this specialty-focused travel assignment, you’ll apply evidence-based rehabilitation strategies, tailor individualized treatment plans, and collaborate with a multidisciplinary team to drive meaningful outcomes. Picture yourself delivering compassionate care within a thriving Bay Area healthcare community, where innovation meets empathy, and every patient encounter becomes an opportunity to advance your clinical impact. Beyond the clinic walls, California reveals itself as a landscape of wonder—sun-dappled beaches along the coast, towering redwoods in the north, the iconic Pacific coastline, the wine-rich valleys, and the sparkling Sierra vistas.

You’ll collaborate with physicians, therapists of other disciplines, case managers, and family members to ensure continuity of care and optimal outcomes. Your clinical impact expands as you mentor junior staff, share best practices, and pursue continuing education that aligns with your specialty focus. The role offers competitive compensation with a weekly pay range of $2,401-$2,531, reflecting your expertise and contribution. A sign-on bonus, housing assistance, and the potential for contract extensions are available to support your transition and ongoing engagement. The assignment is set for multiple weeks with the possibility of extension, and while guaranteed hours are not specified (0.0), you’ll have the flexibility to optimize your schedule in coordination with the assignment needs and your personal capacity.
