Are you a passionate Occupational Therapist looking to make a difference in children’s lives? Do you want to be part of a dynamic, multidisciplinary team where every day brings a new opportunity to create meaningful impact? Our client’s busy Children’s Disability Service in Portlaoise is looking for an Occupational Therapist to join them in providing high-quality care to children with a range of developmental needs.
In this role, you’ll assess, plan, and deliver essential occupational therapy for children with complex needs.
