You have a place in the health care industry!  One of the most rewarding ways that we can rehabilitate patients is in their own home. Whether recovering from an acute stay away from home or a short term illness, helping patients learn to navigate the safety challenges that their own home presents is both valuable and rewarding. Home Health is the best way to set patients up for independence and success in their own space, and at the cutting edge of healthcare.

Banner Home Health is a four-star home care agency with a track record for quality and excellence. We provide support to our therapy teams with a robust clinical support team: a field preceptor, an IT specialist, scheduler, therapy supervisor, and nurse manager.  Our agency strives for the best possible patient outcomes with support from QI specialists, documentation support specialists, telehealth resources, and more.  Having a strong clinical support structure is important to supporting our field clinicians in managing their caseload appropriately while not feeling alone. 

  

As a Banner Home Health Occupational Therapist, you will enjoy working in sub-assigned geographic territories with smaller travel distances than many other agencies. You will enjoy an autonomous but supportive work environment and have the option to work pay per visit or hourly.  We offer mileage reimbursement and will provide you a company cell phone and a tablet for documentation in our electronic medical record system (Home Care Home Base).
