Full Job Description
Rocky Mountain Care Riverton is excited to offer an Occupational Therapist (OT) the opportunity to deliver truly patient-centered care in a supportive and progressive environment.
We empower our therapists to determine what their patients need and provide the time to deliver it—no 15-minute treatment sessions, no 125% productivity expectations, and a strong emphasis on quality over quantity. Our goal is to ensure every patient receives the attention and care they deserve.
Our outstanding therapy team provides innovative, evidence-based treatments for a wide variety of patients, including post-surgical orthopedic, sub-acute neurological, and general medical geriatric populations. We also have a growing outpatient program.
Our building is beautiful and thoughtfully designed, featuring spacious gathering areas, a great dining experience, and private and semi-private room options. Our therapy gym is fully equipped with the latest technology and equipment to support high-quality care.
We offer an ideal work environment with a collaborative and friendly therapy team. Our average length of stay is 23 days, and approximately 85% of our patients return to their prior living arrangements—something we are very proud of.
