• Provide evidence-based occupational therapy interventions for pediatric patients across inpatient and outpatient settings.
• Educate patients, families, caregivers, and support personnel on therapeutic activities, home programs, equipment, and assistive devices.
• Collaborate with an interdisciplinary care team to coordinate treatment, discharge planning, and continuity of care.
• Provide flexible clinical coverage across programs based on patient volume and departmental needs.
• Adapt quickly to different clinical environments, caseloads, and team structures.
• Monitor and communicate patient progress and modify treatment plans as appropriate.
• Maintain timely documentation and meet departmental and regulatory requirements.
• Participate in quality improvement, professional development, and departmental initiatives.
• May provide supervision to COTAs and occupational therapy students.

What We’re Looking For

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Occupational Therapy from an accredited program.
• Current licensure or eligibility for licensure as an Occupational Therapist.
• At least one year of pediatric occupational therapy experience preferred.
• Ability to work effectively across inpatient and outpatient settings.
• A collaborative, adaptable approach and commitment to providing exceptional patient- and family-centered care.
