Nestled along the famous Rogue River and surrounded by forested hills, Grants Pass offers easy access to hiking, fishing, rafting, and year-round outdoor recreation. The historic downtown features local shops, art galleries, and a growing restaurant and coffeehouse scene, while community events and festivals contribute to a strong sense of connection and belonging.
Grants Pass combines a quieter, relaxed pace of life with convenient access to broader regional amenities. Residents enjoy a mild four-season climate, beautiful parks and green spaces, and a family-friendly environment with schools, recreational programs, and a strong community focus.

Patient ratios and daily schedules are designed to support meaningful, patient-centered care while meeting reasonable productivity expectations.
Shifts are typically daytime hours on weekdays, with potential for occasional weekend or holiday coverage depending on census and facility needs. The environment emphasizes teamwork, open communication, and collaboration, with rehabilitation staff working together to create a supportive, patient-focused culture. As an Occupational Therapist in this setting, you will have the opportunity to refine your clinical skills, mentor and collaborate with other clinicians, and contribute to outcomes that are directly meaningful for patients and their families.
