As you consider these wonderful gifts for the occupational therapist in your life, don't forget another fantastic opportunity to take part in Trusted Health's referral program. This can be an excellent way to help fellow clinicians explore new career paths while also earning a reward for your thoughtful recommendation.
Here's how it works: Each Trusted clinician has a unique referral link located on their profile home page. By sharing this link, you can invite others to join the Trusted family. When a referred clinician creates their profile using your link, signs a contract within 180 days, and then completes 400 working hours, you, as the referrer, will earn a generous $1000 bonus!
This referral program is not just a way to earn extra; it's a chance to be part of a colleague's career journey, helping them find opportunities that align with their professional goals and personal needs. So, as you pick out the perfect gift, remember that the gift of a great opportunity through Trusted's referral program can be just as impactful.
