Grow Your Career with CareOne’s In-House Rehab Team

At CareOne, we do things differently. Unlike many skilled nursing companies, we
provide rehabilitation services in-house—not through outside contractors. That
means as a Occupational Therapist with CareOne, you’ll enjoy:

network.

·         Supportive culture where therapists are valued as essential members of
the care team.

The Occupational Therapist's (OT) overall responsibility is to provide care to
the resident at the highest level.
