Occupational Therapist - Integrated Hospital-to-Home Care Program

Overview

Join a growing Allied Health team that’s redefining how care is delivered across the hospital‑to‑home continuum. We’re seeking dedicated, compassionate full‑time Occupational Therapists who are excited to work within an integrated care model where home care, hospital teams, medical providers, and community partners collaborate seamlessly to support patients in real time, based on their changing needs. If you’re driven to make a meaningful impact in the community, Spectrum Health Care offers a supportive and flexible work environment, with opportunities for both in‑person and remote practice, all while delivering high‑quality interventions that help patients achieve their goals. This position bridges inpatient care and community rehabilitation, ensuring safe, effective transitions from hospital to home. You’ll work with patients recovering from surgery, acute illness, complex geriatric conditions, progressive disease, or functional decline, focusing on preventing readmissions, promoting recovery, and maximizing independence. This role offers the chance to apply strong clinical reasoning, exercise leadership, and contribute to measurable improvements in patient outcomes.

At Spectrum, you’ll practice at the intersection of acute‑care clinical reasoning and community‑based service delivery. You’ll support clients recently discharged from hospital or following post‑surgical pathways, backed by a collaborative interdisciplinary team and a flexible, responsive work environment. Whether you’re a new graduate or an experienced practitioner, you’ll have the autonomy to make a real difference in their lives.

• Assess and support patients: Assist patients with overcoming physical, cognitive, and emotional barriers to maximize their independence in daily activities.
• In‑Home Assessments: Conduct comprehensive in‑home assessments to evaluate the physical, cognitive, and psychosocial abilities of clients.
• Collaborative Care Plans: Develop individualized care plans with direct input from clients and their families, and provide input and direction on the frequency and duration of needed OT interventions to meet client goals.
• Interdisciplinary Collaboration: Work closely with physicians, nurses, social workers, and other professionals to ensure the best outcomes for clients.
• Adaptive Equipment & Safety: Assess and train clients and families on the use of adaptive/assistive equipment, safety equipment, mobility aids, and environmental modifications.

Qualifications

• Completion of a recognized Occupational Therapy Program and licensed with the College of Occupational Therapists of Ontario (COTO).
• 3+ years of experience preferred (but not required) and ideally in community settings.
• Experience with assessments, treatment planning, and working with diverse patient populations.
