About this Role

Are you someone who enjoys working with your hands, solving problems, and knowing that your work can make a real difference in someone's life? As an O&P Technician at West Texas Rehabilitation Center, you'll play an important behind-the-scenes role in helping patients regain mobility, independence, and confidence.

Working under the direction of our Orthotics and Prosthetics practitioners, you'll use your technical skills, mechanical aptitude, and attention to detail to fabricate, repair, and maintain orthotic and prosthetic devices designed to meet individual patient needs.

What Makes This Role Different

This isn't simply a job working with tools and equipment-it's an opportunity to see the impact of your work on real people. Every device you help create or repair supports a patient's journey toward greater function and independence.

You'll be part of a collaborative O&P team where quality, integrity, teamwork, compassion, and excellence matter. At WTRC, we believe in doing the right thing for our patients, employees, and community while creating a culture where people work hard, support one another, and have fun along the way.
