Job Type: * PRN*

***A PRN therapist is part of an on-call pool of therapists who work on a per diem basis. PRN is short for the Latin term " pro re nata ," which means "as needed." As a PRN therapist, a therapy organization will send patient assignments for the therapist to follow the POC when they need an extra therapist to treat their patient load. If you are looking for full-time work as a PRN therapist, it is recommended to sign up with several different companies to keep your schedule busy, as some companies may be busier than others in your area . PRN work comes with its own set of considerations, such as hours being reduced during slow periods; but overall, it offers unparalleled flexibility and unique opportunities for growth! Ultimately, PRN work can be an excellent choice for those seeking autonomy and diverse experiences in their profession. Here are the key aspects of a PRN therapist role:

1. Flexible Schedule : PRN therapists have the freedom to choose when they work. They can accept or decline cases based on their availability. This flexibility is especially beneficial for those with other responsibilities or jobs/commitments.
