About This Role
This role involves providing occupational therapy support to pediatric patients across Oregon in their homes, schools, and daycare settings. You'll work alongside occupational therapists to help children develop daily living skills, improve motor function, and build independence through hands-on therapy sessions. Your days will include traveling to different locations to see patients, implementing treatment plans, documenting progress, and communicating with families and care teams. This position suits compassionate healthcare professionals who enjoy working directly with kids and prefer a varied schedule outside a traditional clinic. You'll need flexibility to work in different environments and strong interpersonal skills to build rapport with young patients and their families.

Frequently asked questions
What license do I need to apply?
An active state license in your discipline (PT, OT, SLP, LCSW, LPC, BCBA, etc.) in good standing. Therapy licensure is state-specific — the PT, OT, and ASLP-IC compacts let you practice in member states without a separate license.
Is this a school-year or year-round position?
School-based therapy roles typically follow a 9- or 10-month school-year calendar with summers off. Outpatient, hospital, home-health, and telehealth positions are year-round with PTO. Both options are widely available — check the job description for specifics.
What experience is expected?
Most therapy roles welcome new grads through mid-career clinicians. Specialty positions (acute care, NICU, pediatric feeding, hand therapy) typically prefer 2+ years plus relevant certifications.
