Job Posting: IU Health (Bloomington, IN)

Growing medical/behavioral music therapy position opening: we are now accepting applications for a music therapist at IU Health Bloomington. This position would serve the behavioral health unit, with growing hours on medical floors serving med/surg patients, neuro, ortho, and others. I have also been working with COVID patients and providing staff support through COVID, and it has been an immense privilege. This position has grown from 10 hours when I began in Oct. 2020, to now being a benefitted position (healthcare, PTO, savings plans, etc.) I work at least 32 hours per week, but 40 hours most weeks, and the opportunity to expand medical floor hours is there. You would be working as part of a very supportive and experienced recreation therapy team, with respect and recognition of the role of an MT-BC. We purchased some instruments with a grant last year, and the manager for this position is highly supportive, creative, and present/responsive. Opportunities for continuing education assistance have been available while I have worked at the hospital. We also just moved into the BRAND NEW Regional Academic Health Center – Google new IU Health Bloomington if you want to see – it’s gorgeous! Bloomington is a creative, college town, and a great central location – 1 hour from Indianapolis, 2 hours from Louisville, Cincinnati, and 4 hours from Chicago and Nashville! If you love the creative arts of all types, its a great place to live, and if you like hiking/the outdoors, southern central Indiana has lots of beautiful places to see! I am only leaving this position as my family and I have received an offer with my husband’s work to get incredible benefits and an opportunity to travel overseas, closer to family we’ve been away from for a long time, otherwise this is a job I know I would have stayed at for years. I am proud of the program I have been building and I really want to see someone come in who is ready to continue serving our patients and who wants to continue growing the program so that more patients can receive services!

Interested candidates can email rsmith92@iuhealth.org, and I am also more than happy to schedule phone calls to answer questions and talk about my experience.
