Physical Therapist - Outpatient - Ortho & Neuro

Cleveland Clinic • Euclid, OH • 3d ago

Join Cleveland Clinic Euclid Hospital and experience world-class healthcare at its best. Cleveland Clinic Euclid Hospital offers a complete continuum of care, including emergency services, sub-acute care, rehabilitation and outpatient care. Here, you will work alongside a team of dedicated caregivers, receive endless support and appreciation, and build a rewarding career with one of the most respected healthcare organizations in the world.

Physical Therapists test muscle strength, the amount of flexibility in joints, and the ability to walk or move. This exciting opportunity allows you to collaborate with fellow caregivers to treat adult patients in our Orthopaedics and Neuro Departments. Treatments include exercises to increase strength, range of motion, endurance, and coordination, the use of heat, cold, electricity, or even aquatics to relieve pain, and teaching exercises and body mechanics to avoid injury or regain function. Since this position requires physical interaction with patients, Physical Therapists are highly connected with patients and build stronger patient relationships than most other health sciences specialists. Often, physical therapy patients are dealing with pain, so sensitivity is important. Equally important is giving patients the drive and support they need to work hard and regain their health.
