About The Position

The Calgary West Central Primary Care Network (CWC PCN) is a non-profit organization committed to a healthier future. As a Primary Care Network, we work alongside hundreds of family doctors (our members) to support the patient-doctor relationship and provide programs and services at no cost to doctor or patient. As the Physiotherapist, you’ll virtually assess patients referred by our physician members with a range of physical and functional concerns, and provide self-management advice, education, and referral/navigation support to CWC PCN contracted physiotherapy clinics and/or community programs. You’ll assess patient needs by gathering and analyzing information about the issue/concern from referral forms and through phone consultation with the patient. This is a part-time, temporary position (maternity leave contract), and the expected contract dates are early-mid September 2026 – October 1st, 2027. The schedule is Wednesday and Friday; however, there is the possibility of flexibility with the days of work. This role is primarily a work-from-home position with occasional in-person responsibilities; therefore, the successful candidate must be located within the Calgary Zone or the surrounding area (e.g., Chestermere, Airdrie, etc.).
