In this role, you will provide high-quality, patient-centered occupational therapy services to individuals recovering from illness, injury, surgery, or living with chronic conditions.

At Altru Health System, you will work within a collaborative culture that emphasizes compassionate care, innovation in treatment, and a strong commitment to community health and wellness. Employees can expect engaging work with diverse patient populations, regular opportunities for professional growth and continuing education, and a supportive, team-oriented environment that values clinical excellence, open communication, and respect. This position is ideal for an occupational therapist who is motivated to advance their clinical skills, contribute to interdisciplinary care, and make a meaningful impact on patients’ functional outcomes and overall quality of life within a leading community-owned health system.
