Our final stop in the #RouteVA road trip is the Southern Oregon Rehabilitation Center & Clinics (SORCC) in White City, Oregon. Here, VA recruiters are working to fill more than 250 open roles, including around 100 in mental health—a critical need for the hospital. That means positions are currently available for psychiatrists, psychologists, peer support specialists, social workers and other professionals in the field.
This hiring push comes as the SORCC continues to ramp up its mental health and addiction treatment services. The effort is also a key part of VA’s nationwide Mental Health Hiring Initiative, which looks to add 1,000 new employees to our team this year.
If this sounds like your calling, join us in treating several of today’s most urgent mental health issues to help improve Veterans’ lives. You’ll enjoy regular salary increases, annual performance bonus opportunities and outstanding benefits, such as 49-54 days of PTO per year (26 days of annual leave, 13 days of sick leave and 10 federal holidays). You may also receive a sign-on bonus and relocation assistance.
