What are the responsibilities and job description for the Occupational Therapist (OT) - Part time position at Sprenger Wellspring Silver Maple?
Occupational Therapist (OTR) – In-House
If you’ve worked in SNF therapy under a contract model and felt like the company’s priorities didn’t always match your patients’ needs — this role is intentionally different.
We are an in-house, family-owned therapy organization — not a contract therapy company. Our therapy teams are clinician-led and clinician-supported, so you can focus on what you were trained to do — delivering meaningful, patient-centered care that changes lives.
Why Therapists Choose Sprenger Therapy
- In-house therapy model — your loyalty is to your residents, not a contract company’s bottom line
- Therapy time protected — no routine non-therapy tasks pulling you away from patients
- Clinical judgment respected — autonomy is valued
- Mentorship available — support that goes beyond orientation
- Stable, family-oriented culture — leadership is present and accessible
- Care decisions guided by outcomes and patient needs — not short-term volume
Our therapy teams operate differently — and it shows in our retention and culture.
