    Occupational TherapistJan 2026

    Would not return

    Productivity target was aggressive and evals got squeezed into 45 minutes. Staff were kind, but the pace is real.

    I asked for a 15-minute documentation block after evals and the manager adjusted my template the same week.

    Would return

    Best travel assignment I've had for mentorship. The senior therapists genuinely made time for questions.
