Where are the Jobs?
Tuesday, December 9th, 2008Despite over 500,000 jobs lost in November of this year, the healthcare sector actually GREW in November by 34,000 jobs. Over the past 12 months, this industry added 369,000 jobs.
As mentioned in CNN Money recently: “The healthcare industry continues to be the healthiest sector in the U.S. job market,” said Diana Fitting, vice president for staffing company Adecco. “The Baby Boomer generation is aging and it’s helping to keep healthcare growing.”
This is apparently a trend that will not end anytime soon. So whether you are a Physical Therapist, Occupational Therapist, Nursing or Speech Therapist, there is a good chance you can secure a great job even in this economy. What better way than to consider a career in travel therapy across the US and receive higher than average pay, benefits and security.
Develop a Niche As an OT Consultant
Wednesday, May 14th, 2008An Occupational Therapy Consultant is not something new however, it is gaining momentum in the OT industry as a career opportunity. Most OT Consultants do not treat patients directly but rather assess a person’s abilities and surroundings and determine the best direction or change in their daily routines to make life easier and more accommodating. For example, a person concerned with their aging parent may hire an Occupational Therapist to review their driving habits and offer suggestions, devices or even training to help them drive safely and securely.
OTs may visit an office and devise a plan to make the work area more ergonomic ‘friendly’. There are many uses and services that an Occupational Therapist can provide whether they are a consultant, work in a school assisting children with special needs, or as a traveling OT.
