About this role

BAYADA Home Health Care is seeking a per diem occupational therapist to deliver direct patient care in home settings across Barry, Lawrence, and Dade counties in Missouri. You'll conduct functional assessments, design individualized intervention plans, evaluate home environments for safety and accessibility, and educate patients and families on rehabilitation and independent living strategies. The role emphasizes one-on-one clinical work supported by an interdisciplinary team, with 24/7 clinical backup and documentation handled via tablet-based electronic medical records.

You'll need a current Missouri OT license and at least one year of recent experience as an occupational therapist, along with a degree from an AMA/AOTA-accredited program. While prior home health experience is preferred, the company provides hands-on training and virtual learning support for those new to the setting. The position calls for strong time management, independence, solid computer skills, and the ability to travel locally between client visits.

This per diem arrangement offers scheduling flexibility alongside benefits including medical, dental, and vision coverage, mileage reimbursement, paid time off, weekly pay, a 401(k) match, and tuition reimbursement for continued education. It's suited to someone seeking work-life balance while providing skilled occupational therapy in patients' homes rather than a clinical facility.
