Job description

Practice Owner — Physical Therapy

Build the clinical practice. Lead the care. Change what therapy looks like in senior living.

Northern California | Folsom & Elk Grove

What if you could practice physical therapy in a senior living community where mobility, independence, wellness and engagement are already part of the culture—and have the opportunity to build and lead the clinical practice within it?

Prava is looking for an entrepreneurial Physical Therapist Practice Owner to build a thriving therapy practice within one of our premier senior living partners in Northern California.

This is not a traditional outpatient clinic.

There is no waiting room full of patients. No revolving door. No treating someone for 45 minutes and sending them back into the community without knowing what happens next.

You are embedded in the resident experience.

You build relationships with residents, families and the senior living team. You identify opportunities for therapy. You develop referral pathways. You lead clinicians. And you create a clinical environment where therapy supports what residents actually want to keep doing—moving, participating, connecting and living independently.

This is ownership without starting from zero.

As a Prava Practice Owner, you have the autonomy to lead your clinical practice while Prava provides the infrastructure behind you:

• EHR and practice management technology
• AI-enabled clinical documentation
• Revenue cycle management and billing
• Credentialing and payer support
• Marketing and referral support
• Operational infrastructure
• Recruiting support
• Clinical leadership and coaching
• Data, reporting and business intelligence

You own the clinical leadership. We build the infrastructure that allows you to focus on the practice.

Your role

Build the Practice

• Establish and grow the physical therapy program within the community.
• Develop strong relationships with residents, families and community leadership.
• Build referral pathways and create awareness of the clinical services available.
• Identify opportunities to expand services as resident needs evolve.

Lead Clinically

• Evaluate and treat residents across the continuum of senior living.
• Establish a high standard of clinical reasoning, documentation and resident-centered care.
• Mentor and develop additional clinicians as the practice grows.
• Create a culture where quality matters as much as volume.

Connect Therapy to Lifestyle

• Partner with the community's wellness and fitness teams.
• Look beyond the traditional therapy episode and think about mobility, participation and long-term function.
• Help residents remain engaged in the activities, relationships and routines that matter to them.
• Bring clinical expertise into the broader senior living environment.

Operate Like an Owner

• Understand your practice's clinical and financial performance.
• Monitor volume, utilization, referrals and growth.
• Participate in Prava's Practice Owner Operating Rhythm.
• Take responsibility for building a sustainable, high-performing practice.

Who We're Looking For

You may be a great fit if you are:

• A licensed Physical Therapist in California
• An experienced clinician who wants more ownership over your practice
• Entrepreneurial and energized by building something
• Comfortable working independently while collaborating closely with a larger team
• A strong communicator who naturally builds relationships
• Passionate about senior living, aging well and functional independence
• Interested in developing other clinicians as the practice grows
• Someone who sees the opportunity in senior living—not simply the limitations of it

You don't need to have previously owned a business.

You do need to think like an owner.

Why Prava?

Prava was built around a different idea of senior living therapy.

We believe clinical care should be embedded in the life of the community, not separated from it.

Our Practice Owners get the opportunity to build something meaningful while having the technology, operational infrastructure and support of Prava behind them.

You bring the clinical leadership. You build the relationships. You lead the practice. Prava powers the infrastructure.

And together, we create a clinical experience that feels like it belongs in the community.

This could be your practice.

If you have ever thought:

I wish I could build this the way I know it should be built.

This is your opportunity.

Own the practice. Lead the clinical environment. Partner with Prava.
