Weekend Landscaping Jobs in Ruston, LA (NOW HIRING)

Restore Function and Confidence in a Place Where the Delta Moves With Heart and Heritage
If you're a licensed Occupational Therapist who believes that recovery is more than repetition - it's about restoring meaning, confidence, and joy - this opportunity offers the perfect mix of purpose and place. Whether you're an experienced clinician or a recent grad eager to make a difference, you'll join a rehabilitation team that values your expertise and empowers you to deliver care that's deeply personal and truly impactful.
Here, therapy isn't one-size-fits-all. It's creative. It's collaborative. And it's built on trust - between you and your patients, and between you and a care team that has your back. You'll help individuals recover strength, relearn skills, and regain their independence using strategies tailored not just to their condition, but to their lives. And you'll do it all in a region that grounds you, inspires you, and welcomes you with open arms.
What You'll Be Doing
In this full-time role, you'll assess patients' functional abilities, design individualized therapy plans, and lead them through evidence-based interventions that support daily living, cognitive skills, and overall independence. You'll coach families and caregivers on home strategies, collaborate with physical therapists, nurses, and physicians, and document patient progress as goals evolve. Every day, you'll adapt your techniques to meet patients where they are - physically and emotionally - and help them push forward, step by step.
Why You'll Love the Team - and the Landscape That Surrounds It
You'll be part of a close-knit, mission-driven team that values communication, curiosity, and care without ego. From your first day, you'll have access to mentorship, continuing education, and the kind of supportive culture where your wins are celebrated and your voice is heard. Whether you're refining your clinical skills or exploring future leadership roles, there's room to grow - and people who genuinely want to help you get there.
But what sets this opportunity apart is the rhythm of life beyond the clinic walls. Nestled along the banks of a quiet bayou in northern Louisiana, this area offers a rare blend of soulful charm, outdoor adventure, and cultural richness. Here, weekends can start with fishing at Black Bayou Lake National Wildlife Refuge and end with live blues under the stars at a neighborhood festival. Just a short drive away, you'll find scenic byways winding through cypress groves, regional museums that tell stories generations deep, and local spots serving up some of the best gumbo and crawfish touffée you've ever tasted.
This region's connection to the Delta runs more than geographic - it runs through the food, the music, the people, and the deep sense of community. It's a place where traditions matter, neighbors look out for each other, and the slower pace gives you space to breathe, reflect, and really show up - for your patients and for yourself.
What We're Looking For
You'll need an active Occupational Therapist license in Louisiana, along with NBCOT certification. Clinical or rehab experience is a plus, but we welcome new grads with strong communication skills, clinical reasoning, and a genuine heart for helping others. If you're adaptable, driven, and compassionate, you'll feel right at home here.
Let's Help People Rebuild - and Rediscover What They Can Do
If you're ready to make a lasting impact in a region that honors care, community, and connection, we'd love to hear from you. Apply today and bring your talent, your empathy, and your purpose to a team - and a town - that truly values it all.
