Our company is well-established (founded in 1998) and continues to steadily grow because of our commitment to transforming lives and restoring hope through movement. Our growth is steady and consistent, especially with our pediatrics services.Ā 


We currently have a GREAT OPPORTUNITY for a CERTIFIED OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY ASSISTANT (COTA) to work on a full-time basis in our OUTPATIENT ORTHO/PEDIATRICS THERAPY CLINIC in Ames, IA. The OT clients we serve in this clinic includes both pediatrics clients with sensorimotor processing challenges and people of all ages with upper extremity orthopedic dysfunctions.

• Continuity of care – our treatments are very personal and provided by one provider or a close-knit team
• Active treatments – our focus is on functional enhancement, therapeutic play, and manual skills, not passive modalities
• Autonomy of practice – our therapist schedules are flexible to allow for a comfortable work/family balance
• A lifetime of learning – we provide ample opportunities for continuing education, advanced education enhancement programs, and encourage unique skill development
• The platinum rule – we treat others better than we expect to be treated

Our benefits allow you to grow professionally and clinically with:


• Competitive salary with bonus-earning opportunities

• A personalized mentorship process
• Generous paid time off (PTO) package
• Generous CEU & advanced education benefits for life-long learning
• 401(k) plan with generous matching
