As a physical therapist, no two days and no two patients are alike. You champion multiple patients as they begin their physical rehabilitation journey. Whether it's a neurological issue or a physical trauma, you encourage, comfort, and ready your patients for therapy, interacting with physicians, case managers, nurses, and families as part of a team care approach. You celebrate the ordinary, because in the world of rehabilitation, just the act of taking a few steps may be an extraordinary milestone for your patient. And while you focus on your patient's 'extraordinary', we focus on giving you the tangible and intangible resources that foster the 'little something extras' you need to amplify your impact and grow your expertise.

Take the lead: prioritizing, coordinating, and delegating all physical rehabilitation care touchpoints for your patients.
Interact with other members of the rehabilitation team to coordinate goals and improve quality of care.
Ensure patient physical therapy care and activities consistent with the medical plan of care.
Maintain and advocate a safe environment for everyone.
Monitor and engage with your patients, families, and appropriate care team members for teaching and education opportunities, patient condition changes, or patient questions and concerns.
Ensure continuity of care, efficient throughput, consistent communications, and an exceptional experience for every patient.
Contribute to the team by assisting others without being asked.
Provide guidance to new and experienced personnel and oversight for ancillary personnel.
Reassess and revise goals and treatment plan as indicated by patient's status, program requirements, and CMS rules and regulations.
Evaluate patient progress toward expected outcomes and document as indicated regarding subsequent assessments, evaluation of treatment and interventions including responses.
