$75k - $90k

PT Solutions

Occupational Therapist

Are you passionate about expanding access to transformative care, leading the way in innovative therapy practices, and pursuing clear, tangible pathways for professional growth and development? At PT Solutions, we're hiring for a full-time Occupational Therapist who is ready to elevate their career while making a real difference in the lives of patients and our communities.

PT Solutions works together with Northeast Regional Medical Center to provide rehabilitation therapy services in order to best serve patients in the area. We have been recognized as a USA Today Top Workplace five years in a row, including 2026!

At PT Solutions, we are founded by clinicians. Our mission is expanding access to transformative care because people matter—people who need care, and our people who provide care. As part of our team, you'll join innovators and advocates, passionate about advancing access to quality care and making a lasting impact on patients, communities, and the industry. That means more collaboration for evidence-based therapy when and where it's needed. It also means tangible opportunities for your future through learning and advancement.

In addition to the standard benefit offering, you can expect to receive:

  • Competitive compensation with ability to earn additional weekend and holiday rates
  • Local and national organization dues and license renewal reimbursement
  • Structured mentoring and quarterly in-person or online continuous education courses through MedBridge memberships
  • Experience working with a diverse patient population in neuro, trauma, and ortho
  • Paid Time Off (PTO) and either Sick Leave or Extended Illness Bank (EIB) accrual (dependent on state laws)
  • Reimbursement for endurance race entry fees

Your responsibilities as an Inpatient Rehabilitation/Acute Care Occupational Therapist include:

  • Deliver evidence-based, quality care to each patient empowering them to previous level of functioning or proceed to next level of care
  • Establish timely treatment plans for each patient's specific needs
  • Demonstrate a positive connection with patients, patient families, fellow clinicians, and other hospital team members
  • Build and maintain relationships throughout the hospital (I.e. physicians, case management, nurses, etc)

Qualifications:

  • Graduate of an ACOTE approved occupational therapy program
  • Registered with NBCOT
  • Current or pending state licensure
  • Basic Life Support certification

Compensation: $75,000-$90,000 per year (Any posted pay range considers multiple compensations factors including background, experience, and work location while also allowing for salary growth within the position)

A Top Workplace

At PT Solutions, we're more than colleagues; we're a tight-knit community united in our mission to expand access to quality care. Our commitment to you is evident in our industry-leading professional development opportunities. From ongoing evidence-based clinical education to dedicated mentorship opportunities and an APTA-accredited Orthopedic Residency Program, we propel our clinicians toward excellence in physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech-language pathology, and athletic training.

PT Solutions has been named a 2026 USA Today Top Workplace for the fifth consecutive year, based entirely on employee feedback. We've also earned five Culture Excellence Awards for Innovation, Professional Development, Work-Life Flexibility, Appreciation, and Purpose & Values. This recognition reflects a culture built around supporting our people. It's not just what we do, but how we make people feel. Through human connection, intentional care, and being all in for one another, we create experiences that make a difference. Because together, we do great better.

Let's go further together and transform care. Join the #PTSLife today! We are an equal opportunity employer and welcome all qualified candidates to apply!
