Your Opportunity:
Are you an Occupational Therapist (OT) who loves working with a dynamic interdisciplinary team? Do you have experience working in an adult neuro rehab setting?

We are an outpatient rehabilitation program for adults, specializing in complex and/or chronic neurological conditions. We are looking for an OT with clinical experience treating neurological conditions, including stroke, acquired brain injury, spinal cord injury and degenerative neurological conditions.

The OT works as part of a collaborative interdisciplinary team and will operate in a client-centered, functional, outcome-based outpatient rehabilitation model. CAR is a multi-site program, and this position is located out of the Peter Lougheed Centre. The caseload for all positions within CAR may be subject to change based on operational considerations with 80% of this role involved in direct patient care activities.
