"Quality of care is very important to me. So I value John Muir Health's ongoing education and continual sharing of educational information. They ensure that the best care possible is the norm. The benefits are exceptional compared to other facilities where I've worked...salaries are adjusted to be competitive in the area. We have a retirement plan, a matching 403b plan, generous PTO plan, tuition reimbursement and educational leave...and the camaraderie among the staff is excellent...which all make work more fun."

"Working for John Muir Health has been a positive experience. As therapists we collaborate with the OT dept and between disciplines to foster the best possible outcomes for our patients. The administration is supportive of new ideas for expanding the programs we offer the community, as well as our goals to pursue advanced certification...such as becoming a certified hand therapist. As a group we plan events outside of work to have fun and get to know each other better. John Muir is the best place I have worked in my 15 years as an Occupational Therapist."
What makes John Muir Health exceptional for Occupational Therapists is the chance to move through a complete continuum of rehab therapy - from inpatient acute care including orthopedics (due to our large total joint replacement unit), traumatic brain injury and critical spinal chord injuries - to our unique inpatient rehab unit and outpatient clinics.
New Grads
You'll play an integral role in our patients' health care as they undergo different procedures. You could be assigned to acute care, then to work in the acute rehab, and follow up in one of five outpatient therapy centers in central Contra Costa County. You are not just limited to hospital-based acute care or inpatient practice - we have everything. When we bring people into our system, they find their niche and stay here.
At John Muir Health you will find what you need - the opportunity to learn and the guidance of mentors who help you out, but give you enough room to do your own thing. Any experience you gain that involves communication - how to express yourself and get your point across clearly - will stand you in good stead.
Career Promotion
We focus on your professional advancement with the John Muir Scholarship Award Program to help tenured employees pursue work-related education; a Work Study Program to pursue a CHT, MBA or Master's in Health Care Administration; Annual Tuition Reimbursement and Student Loan Forgiveness, to name a few.
To fully appreciate your role in acute rehabilitation, consider applying at John Muir Health.
