Job description

• Collaborate with other therapists, providers, and disciplines
• Work/life balance – no hours of documentation after work hours

Benefits

• Medical insurance coverage (Medical, Dental, Vision)
• Work/life balance – 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
• Additional benefits

Day‑to‑day Responsibilities

• 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
• Provide active and passive exercise, muscle re‑education, gait, functional training of ADLs, and treatments including massage, heat, sound, water, light, or electricity
• Supervise Therapy Assistants, providing training, instruction, and guidance needed to implement Functional Maintenance Programs (FMP)
• Provide training and instruction to staff, participants, and caregivers/families on the use and care of therapeutic equipment

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in physical therapy; master’s or doctoral degree preferred
• Two (2) years in clinical setting with frail or elderly population preferred
• Valid California Physical Therapy License, or proof of license eligibility
• Must obtain CPR and First Aid certification within 180 days of hire and maintain certification thereafter; CPR and First Aid certification upon hire preferred

Compensation: $112,923 – $136,281 USD, base salary plus bonus. Actual compensation will be determined based on experience and relevant qualifications.
