Travel Therapy Jobs in Colorado

Colorado is a Nurse Licensure Compact state. Nurses holding a multistate compact license can practice in Colorado without obtaining additional state licensure. Therapists, however, must obtain Colorado-specific licensure as therapy disciplines are not covered under the Nurse Licensure Compact. Physical therapists need a Colorado PT license, occupational therapists require a Colorado OT license, and speech-language pathologists must hold Colorado SLP licensure. Your Fusion recruiter will guide you through the specific licensing requirements for your therapy discipline and help ensure all credentials are in order before your Colorado assignment begins.
