• Monitor patient progress, adjust treatment plans as needed, and maintain accurate, detailed records in compliance with healthcare regulations and HHC documentation standards
• Contribute to a positive, supportive clinic culture grounded in compassion, understanding, and empathy for patients navigating both chronic pain and mental health challenges

What we’re looking for:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Physiotherapy from an accredited institution

• Empathy, compassion, and a trauma-informed approach to care, emphasizing the importance of the mind-body connection in the treatment of pain
• Proven organizational skills and the ability to manage a diverse caseload efficiently
• Dedication to ongoing professional development and a commitment to staying informed about the latest developments in the field of physiotherapy
