    As an Occupational Therapist at CHI Health CUMC-Bergan Mercy Hospital, you'll help our patients regain their independence and quality of life so they can safely go about their daily activities.

    You'll work alongside physicians, physical therapists, speech therapists, and other health professionals to assess patients, develop a plan of care, and carry out their treatment plan.

    You'll see a variety of patients daily with issues in several areas, including orthopedic, neurological, sensory, and cancer recovery, to name a few.

    You'll evaluate and re-evaluate patients and provide physicians with updates on improvements to the patient's daily life. You're truly the bridge between physical therapy and speech therapy.

    To thrive in this role, you must be flexible and adaptable. You'll care for all patient populations presenting with a variety of conditions. You need to be extremely organized and efficient. You'll see many patients each workday and will be required to document all evaluations, treatments, and status changes. Most importantly, you must be positive, personable, and motivating.

    While the entire care team works to treat illnesses and injuries, therapists truly motivate patients to get active and get better.

    It can be a long road for some patients, and a therapist who remains upbeat and energetic can make all the difference.

    At CHI Health CUMC-Bergan Mercy, our focus is patient-centered care.

    Our level I trauma center and academic medical center campus is designed to heal the body, mind and spirit of every person in a more comfortable, less stressful hospital environment.

    Our full range of medical services includes trauma services, heart and vascular care, emergency services, surgery, maternity, cancer care and diagnostic imaging.

    Recommend adaptive equipment and customize it as needed.

    Perform re-evaluation assessments to update progress, status changes, etc.

    Document all evaluations, treatments, and any changes to the treatment plan.


    Seek help when needed; provide support when others request it - this can include assistance with tasks, advice, mentoring, or help to obtain additional specialty certifications if you're interested.

    Maintain a friendly and upbeat attitude to motivate our patients to do their best.

    Any combination of BS, Masters, Doctorate.
