You'll be supported as you follow your dreams and find where you belong, here at Tradition Hospital.

Occupational Therapists provide many wide-ranging services to a variety of people, from infants to older adults. Occupational therapy is provided to people who have been referred by a physician due to a problem with their ability to perform normal activities of daily living (ADLs). This may be due to physical injury, emotional or developmental problems, stroke, elective surgery, disease processes, aging, or birth defects, just to name a few. The goal of OT is to maximize the ability of each individual to perform self-care, work, and leisure activities to the best of their physical, emotional, and cognitive abilities. Ultimately, the goal is also to help patients re-learn skills needed to live independent, productive, and satisfying lives.

This role offers the opportunity to be a part of a family-focused department that sees the importance of flexibility in scheduling. There are also many education opportunities offered for professional and career development as well as mentorship through our preceptors and the Cleveland Clinic mentorship program.
