New Orleans, United States LCMC Health Full time

Your job is more than a job.

As an Occupational Therapist, your typical day is anything but typical as you work with your patients to achieve the everyday, ordinary activities that most take for granted. The ordinary becomes extraordinary as you help your patients achieve the highest possible level of independence following a brain injury, a physical trauma, or a stroke.

You live and give your all without hesitation because you know what it takes to motivate and inspire your patient's rehabilitative journey. We love that about you and we're here to support and champion you with the tools, benefits, and resources that highlight the value of your one-of-a-kind approach to healthcare.

Your experiences, knowledge, skills, empathy, compassion, and your "little something extra" all add up to you. And we're excited to get to know you and find out what you'll bring to this occupational therapist role.
