Community Occupational Therapist (Contractor, PPT or FT)

About us

We are a team of occupational therapists, physiotherapists, exercise physiologists and podiatrists, who provide quality healthcare in the comfort of our client's homes. We service the Greater Sydney area including the Western Sydney, Blue Mountains, Blacktown, Parramatta, Hills and South West Sydney areas. We also partner with Share My Ability (sensory gym) to provide clinic based services in Penrith. As a multi-disciplinary allied health team, we assist our clients to build capacity by providing therapy, prescribing assistive technology, home modifications, hydrotherapy and more. Our occupational therapy caseload is primarily NDIS and aged care, however we regularly get paediatric referrals, so if this is an area you're interested in, we could facilitate this. We are looking for energetic and enthusiastic allied health professionals to join our growing team. We value personal and professional development, job satisfaction, flexibility and social activities. We're big on developing a sustainable work-life balance and will support you to organise your work week accordingly.
