Physical Therapist NE

Cleveland Clinic • Lodi, OH • 8h ago

Join Cleveland Clinic's Lodi Hospital where research and surgery are advanced, technology is leading-edge, patient care is world-class, and caregivers are family. This community-based hospital is a member of Cleveland Clinic Akron General and has provided top-quality patient care to the communities in and around Medina County since 1920. Here, you will work with and learn from some of our best 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. 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.
