  • Modern Tech + Efficient EMR
  • Wellness & Fitness Reimbursement
  • Team Events, Community Outreach, and Volunteer Days

What will you do?

  • Carry out personalized treatment plans for patients recovering from surgery, injury, or chronic orthopedic conditions
  • Assist with therapeutic exercises, ADL training, and adaptive techniques
  • Observe, report, and document patient progress accurately and timely
  • Educate patients on proper techniques and home programs
  • Communicate and collaborate effectively with the OT and care team
  • Foster a positive and motivating clinical environment

If you're a COTA who’s ready to grow, learn, and help people regain their independence through orthopedic care, we want to meet you!
