Flexible PRN Therapy Work—Without the Burnout

Sheridan Community Hospital is seeking a PRN Occupational Therapist (OT) to support our Rehabilitation Services team across inpatient, outpatient, and short-term rehab (swing bed) settings.

This is an ideal opportunity for therapists looking for flexibility, supplemental income, or a break from high-volume healthcare systems, while continuing to provide meaningful, hands-on patient care.


A Location That Works for You

Sheridan offers a practical alternative to large health systems:

  • ~45 minutes from Grand Rapids Metro
  • ~60 minutes from Lansing, MI
  • Easy, low-traffic commute compared to urban hospitals
  • Work in a supportive, team-focused environment while living in a larger city

Many therapists commute to SCH for a better pace, stronger team collaboration, and more fulfilling patient interactions.


Why Occupational Therapists Choose SCH

  • Flexible PRN scheduling that fits your lifestyle
  • Treat across multiple settings (inpatient, outpatient, swing bed rehab)
  • Focus on quality patient care—not unrealistic productivity quotas
  • Supportive, collaborative rehab team
  • Opportunity to maintain and expand clinical skills
  • Direct impact on patient recovery and independence

Occupational Therapist Responsibilities

  • Evaluate and treat patients across inpatient, outpatient, and rehabilitation settings
  • Develop individualized treatment plans focused on functional independence
  • Deliver evidence-based occupational therapy interventions
  • Collaborate with physicians, nurses, and interdisciplinary teams
  • Educate patients and families on therapy plans and home programs
  • Document care accurately in the electronic health record
  • Maintain strong focus on patient safety, outcomes, and experience
  • Participate in quality improvement and departmental initiatives
  • Adapt to varying patient volumes and treatment needs

What We’re Looking For

  • Graduate of an accredited Occupational Therapy program
  • Current Michigan Occupational Therapist license required
  • CPR certification required
  • Experience in short-term rehab, outpatient, or inpatient therapy preferred
  • Strong communication and teamwork skills
  • Flexibility to adapt to patient needs and scheduling

What Makes This Role Unique

  • Practice in a 22-bed critical access hospital with strong interdisciplinary collaboration
  • Provide care across multiple rehab settings in one role
  • Experience a balanced pace compared to high-volume urban systems
  • Work in an environment where your clinical impact is visible and valued

What to Expect

This PRN role offers flexible, as-needed scheduling based on patient volume. Therapists may work across different care settings, providing a well-rounded clinical experience.
