About This Role
As a Behavior Technician at MedCare Pediatric, you'll provide one-on-one support to children with autism and developmental disabilities, helping them develop communication, social, and life skills through ABA therapy methods. Your days involve direct interaction with clients, implementing treatment plans designed by supervising clinicians, and documenting progress on skill acquisition. The role demands both physical activity and emotional investment—you'll engage children in structured activities, redirect behaviors when needed, and celebrate small wins. This position suits someone with patience, genuine interest in child development, and the ability to stay calm in dynamic situations. You'll work closely with a clinical team that values collaboration and ongoing professional growth. Prior experience with children or therapy backgrounds are valuable, though the right attitude and commitment to learning matter most.

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.
