Job Description
At WelbeHealth each participant of our program is guided by our interdisciplinary team (IDT) - composed of clinical and non-clinical members who work cohesively to provide quality patient-centered care.
The Physical Therapist is a key member of the IDT, focusing on care planning and the coordination and delivery of restorative and rehabilitative physical therapy services to participants, working to maximize independence and safety.
- This role is different because Physical Therapists at WelbeHealth:
- Lower patient volumes – no more seeing 3-4 patients an hour
- Form long-term relationships with participants rather than short-term rehab stints
- Collaborate with other therapists, providers, and disciplines
- Have work/life balance - no hours of documentation after work hours
- We care about our team members. That’s why we offer:
- Medical insurance coverage (Medical, Dental, Vision)
- Work/life balance - We mean it! 17 days of personal time off (PTO), 12 holidays observed annually, and 6 sick days
- 401K savings + match
- Comprehensive compensation package including base pay and bonus
- Unlimited CEUs through MedBridge
- And additional benefits!
On the Day-to-day, You Will
Conduct Physical Therapy assessments in our facility and occasionally in the home to define participant care needs, preferences, and goals
- Actively participate in IDT meetings to develop participant care plans
- Deliver and document interventions as agreed upon in participant care plans
