Hi all!

I have been in outpatient Peds for 7 years but am feeling burnt out with the outpatient model, unrealistic productivity standards, SO many behavioral referrals disguised as sensory needs, and continuing reimbursement cuts. My local school district has moved from contracting their OT to hiring a full time person directly through the district. I am considering taking this position, but also worried about a change of scenery to something I am not familiar with.

Anyone in schools and love it? Major pros and cons? I have young kids, not yet school aged, but I know the schedule would be great for our family when they do start school.
