Licensed Occupational Therapist - Outpatient Hand Therapy

Hands For Living • Lynnwood, WA

2d • Onsite

About The Position

Hands for Living is an OT-owned, OT-led specialty hand therapy practice devoted exclusively to upper extremity rehabilitation. Every therapist on our clinical team is an occupational therapist, and we've intentionally built a practice where therapists have the support, collaboration, and autonomy to do their very best work. This practice is designed to support both exceptional patient care and sustainable careers. Therapists enjoy one-on-one patient care, 45-minute treatment appointments, no double-booking, custom orthosis fabrication whenever clinically appropriate, and direct collaboration with referring hand surgeons. An experienced administrative team manages scheduling, insurance authorizations, billing, and front-office operations so therapists can focus on patient care. Therapists are expected to average approximately 44 patient visits per week. Daily schedules include built-in flexibility to accommodate the unexpected. Professional growth is built into everyday practice with weekly one-on-one meetings with supervisors, monthly therapist collaboration meetings focused on clinical discussion and learning, and daily access to experienced colleagues who enjoy mentoring and sharing knowledge. For therapists interested in leadership and teaching, there are opportunities to grow beyond direct patient care, such as becoming Lead Therapists, clinical leadership, therapist mentoring, program development, continuing education, and practice leadership.
