OT Jobs in Massachusetts: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a ot in Massachusetts?
To work as an ot in Massachusetts, you must hold an active license from the Massachusetts Board of Registration in Allied Health Professions. Candidates need a master's or doctoral degree in occupational therapy from an accredited program, completion of supervised fieldwork hours, and a passing score on the NBCOT certification exam. Once those requirements are met, you apply directly to the Board for licensure before practicing in the state.
Which companies hire ots in Massachusetts?
Employers hiring ots in Massachusetts right now include Stern Therapy Consultants, Havenova Home Care Solutions, and LTC Therapy Services, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Massachusetts's dense network of academic medical centers, community health systems, and public school districts makes it one of the more consistently active states for OT hiring across multiple practice settings.
Which Massachusetts cities have the most ot jobs?
Lowell, Boston, and Sudbury have the most ot openings in Massachusetts. Boston drives the largest share of demand through its concentration of major hospital systems and academic medical centers, while Worcester and Springfield support strong OT hiring through regional health systems, school districts, and outpatient rehabilitation networks that serve sizable surrounding communities.
Are there remote ot jobs in Massachusetts?
Yes, but they're rare. Occupational therapy is fundamentally a hands-on, patient-facing profession, so the vast majority of roles require in-person work. About 50% of ot openings tied to Massachusetts are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, and those positions are almost exclusively in telehealth consultation, care coordination, or program management rather than direct clinical treatment.
How can I get hired as a ot in Massachusetts with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying to new-graduate residency or fellowship programs at large Massachusetts health systems such as Mass General Brigham and UMass Memorial Health, which offer structured clinical mentorship for new clinicians. School districts across Massachusetts also hire entry-level ots through the public education system, often with support from experienced colleagues. Completing your NBCOT exam and securing your Massachusetts license before you apply gives you an immediate edge, and candidates who completed fieldwork placements at Massachusetts facilities often have a smoother transition into permanent roles.
Where can I find and apply to ot jobs in Massachusetts?
