Occupational Therapist
About the Role
At West Texas Rehab Center, you’ll have the autonomy, support, and team behind you to practice OT the way it was meant to be—functional, individualized, and truly life-changing.
What You’ll Do
This isn’t checkbox therapy. This is real-life carryover.
-
Work with a highly educated team of specialists
-
Perform comprehensive evaluations and build meaningful, patient-specific plans of care
-
Deliver evidence-based occupational therapy focused on function and independence

Treat the whole person—not just the diagnosis

Adapt and progress care based on real-time clinical reasoning

-
Collaborate with physicians and interdisciplinary teams to optimize outcomes
-
Supervise students and help shape the future of OT
-
Ensure accurate coding and billing that reflects the care you provide

Clinical autonomy – You’re trusted to think, not just follow protocols

-
No grind mentality – Patient care > chasing productivity numbers
-

You’ll thrive here if you:
-
Care about helping people get back to real life, not just finish exercises

Can balance independence with collaboration

Want to grow—not coast

Bring empathy, energy, and just enough personality to make patients feel human again
