Occupational Therapist

Regions has a full time opening in our inpatient rehab department for an experienced Occupational Therapist.

This position will provide occupational therapy services to adult patients primarily at our Regions Hospital Rehabilitation Center--our 21-bed acute inpatient rehabilitation unit. Our Rehabilitation Center maintains CARF specialty accreditation in stroke, brain injury, and spinal cord injury care--meaning that we hold ourselves to high standards of care and provide ongoing training and personal development of clinical skills in these areas. We are also a Spinal Cord Injury Model Systems site, connecting our staff and patients to research opportunities and professional development in spinal cord injury. An ideal candidate would have 3 years' work experience in an inpatient rehabilitation setting and experience in one or more of these diagnoses: stroke, brain injury, spinal cord, amputation, or complex medical/complex orthopedic injuries. We work collaboratively as an interdisciplinary team, so we are seeking an OT with strong problem solving and communication skills. Onboarding is provided for each new team member, and we pride ourselves on our welcoming, team-centered, and supportive culture. Training on specialty rehabilitation technology (FES cycle, Armeo upper extremity exoskeleton, Bioness Integrative Technology touchscreen, pressure mapping technology and more) is included in onboarding. Yearly continuing education money as well as paid MedBridge subscription are benefits of this position.
