Job description

You Didn't Become an Occupational Therapist to Chase a Number.

Patients per hour. Units per visit .Productivity percentages. Visits per week.

We understand that numbers are part of healthcare.

But they shouldn't define the kind of therapist you are.

At Reddy Care Physical & Occupational Therapy, we're looking for a Occupational Therapist to join our Homecare outpatient team - and we're looking for someone who wants more than simply moving from patient to patient all day.

Patients aren't numbers.

Therapists aren't numbers.

And we don't believe great patient care should be sacrificed just to squeeze another visit onto the schedule.

Come to Work and Actually Practice Occupational Therapy

We want our therapists to have the opportunity to listen to their patients, think clinically, develop individualized treatment plans, and build relationships with the people they're treating.

That doesn't mean we don't have expectations.

We're a growing organization, and accountability matters. But productivity is one piece of the picture - not the sole measure of your value as a therapist.

We care about your clinical decision-making. Your patients' experience. Your outcomes. Your reliability. Your development. Your contribution to your team.

And most importantly, we want to help you become a better therapist.

Grow Your Skills, Not Just Your Schedule

Whether you're a new graduate or have years of experience, your career should continue moving forward.

As a Homecare Occupational Therapist, you will be working 1:1 with patients for an hour at a time, building your own schedule, building your own plans of care, building your own relationships. Full Time Homecare therapists are expected to treat 31 patients per week, or roughly 6 per day, in a territory close to home, allowing you to spend maximum time with your patients in your local community, while also managing work-life-balance.

We're looking for clinicians who want to ask questions, learn, develop areas of expertise, and take ownership of their careers.

Over time, that can mean opportunities to:

• Develop your clinical skills and areas of specialization
• Learn from and collaborate with experienced clinicians
• Mentor students and newer therapists
• Take on additional responsibilities within your clinic
• Help develop new programs and services
• Pursue future leadership opportunities

Your next step shouldn't just be seeing more patients. It should be becoming a better clinician.

Join Us at an Exciting Time

Reddy Care currently has 12 outpatient locations - and we're working toward 20 over the next 6 months.

For our therapists, that growth means more than adding locations to a map, and more coverage throughout the Long Island/Queens/NYC area. It creates new opportunities for clinicians who want to grow with us.

As new clinics open and existing locations continue to develop, we need great therapists, mentors, future Clinical Directors, and people who want to help shape what comes next.

You can join our Homecare team today, and not limit what you do tomorrow.

This Could Be a Great Fit If...

You're a new graduate looking for an environment where you can develop confidence and clinical skills.

You're an experienced OT who still loves treating patients but is tired of feeling like your entire day is dictated by a productivity metric.

You want accountability and expectations - but also want to work for an organization that recognizes there's more to being a great therapist than hitting a number.

Or maybe you're simply looking for a place where you can enjoy being an Occupational Therapist again.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for a New York State licensed or license-eligible Occupational Therapist who brings the qualities that can't always be measured on a spreadsheet:

Compassion. Curiosity. Reliability. Communication. Clinical judgment. And a genuine desire to help people get better.

Experience is welcome, but new graduates are encouraged to apply.

We're interested in finding the right therapist for our Homecare team, not simply filling a spot on the schedule.

Patients Aren't Numbers. Neither Are You.

There will always be metrics in healthcare.

But there should also be mentorship.

There should be collaboration.

There should be professional growth.

There should be time to listen to your patient.

There should be opportunities to advance.

And there should be days when you leave work knowing you made a difference.

That's what we're continuing to build at Reddy Care.
