  • CEU support (in-house + reimbursement)
  • Licensure and credential reimbursement
  • Wellness incentives and employee recognition programs
  • Career growth and leadership opportunities
  • Laptop or iPad provided, with full access to in-office laminators and therapy resources

What We’re Looking For:

  • Master’s Degree in Occupational Therapy
