Pay Range:$53.65 - $75.27

This position will be based in one of SEARHC’s Rehabilitation Services clinics and will have a varied focus depending on the location and the local need. The primary focus will be to provide general Occupational Therapy (OT), Physical Therapy (PT) or Speech Language Pathology (SLP) evaluations and treatments which impact patient’s overall functional and/or cognitive and/or swallow abilities. The therapist performs all therapy interventions and supervisory responsibilities in a professional manner, respects confidentiality, and demonstrates qualities endorsed by following the Seven Standards for Service Excellence outlined in the SEARHC Human Resources Manual.

Services are to be provided in compliance with licensure requirements, regulatory and practice standards of a(n) OT/PT/SLP and the national professional guidelines established by the American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA), American Physical Therapy Association (APTA), or American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA). Along with therapeutic intervention, this position is responsible for day-to-day operations of the rehab clinic including supervision of rehab staff.
OT/PT/SLPs are health care professionals responsible and accountable for patient assessment, evaluation, establishing a plan of care and therapeutic interventions for a wide range of ages with widely varying diagnoses and skills needs who present with a full spectrum of movement abilities, dysfunctions and complexities. The clinician needs to be able to inform clinical teams regarding decisions that involve OT/PT/SLP while taking into consideration consultation provided by other care providers.

As patients are seen, recommendations may be made regarding their level of independence and rehabilitation needs which may impact services, care placement and further treatment. The incumbent shall also demonstrate accountability for the contribution to program development, quality improvement, problem solving, and productivity enhancement in a flexible interdisciplinary fashion. Documenting standards must be followed for continuity of care and reimbursement for services.

The position may require occasional travel off site and out of town to provide services or cover for providers in other SEARHC facilities.
