Job description

About the role

Blue Wing Care is looking for a Physiotherapist to join our allied health team in Beenleigh and across South East Queensland. The work is NDIS disability physiotherapy rather than musculoskeletal private practice: mobility, positioning, transfers, respiratory care, falls prevention and manual handling for people with significant and often lifelong disability.

You will see the same people over months and years, which is the part most physios say they miss. Our supported living teams carry out what you prescribe, and you will train them to do it properly.

What you will do

• Assess and treat mobility, posture, positioning and transfers
• Prescribe mobility equipment, seating and pressure care in partnership with our occupational therapists
• Write and review manual handling plans, and train support workers to follow them
• Contribute to complex and high-intensity support planning alongside behaviour support and nursing
• Keep clinical notes and documentation to NDIS Practice Standards

What you bring

• Current AHPRA registration as a Physiotherapist
• A current Australian driver's licence and a roadworthy, insured vehicle
• A valid NDIS Worker Screening clearance
• A valid Blue Card
• First Aid and CPR training, or willingness to complete it

Experience in disability, paediatrics or neurological rehabilitation is valued. It is not a requirement.

What we offer

• A clear, realistic billable expectation you will know before you start
• Equipment and seating budgets that exist, and an OT team to prescribe alongside
• Supervision from clinicians who carry a caseload themselves
• Permanent full-time, with part-time and contract arrangements open to discussion
• Laptop and phone provided
• Funded professional development

We are an approved sponsor and welcome applications from overseas-qualified clinicians who want to relocate to Australia.
