Physical Therapist

Cleveland Clinic • Hobe Sound, FL • 15h ago

Join the Cleveland Clinic Florida team, where you will work alongside passionate caregivers and provide patient-first healthcare. Cleveland Clinic is recognized as one of the top hospitals in the nation. At Cleveland Clinic, you will work alongside passionate and dedicated caregivers, receive endless support and appreciation, and build a rewarding career with one of the most respected healthcare organizations in the world.

Martin Health Hobe Sound is looking to add a Physical Therapist to the team who will work with patients in an outpatient setting. 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.

A caregiver in this position works Monday-Friday from 8:00AM - 4:30PM.

A caregiver who excels in this role will:

Evaluate and conduct medically prescribed physical therapy treatment programs.

Interpret plans and supervise patient treatments in accordance with the physician referral, ensuring the care, safety and wellbeing of the patient.

Review and evaluate the patient's response or lack thereof to treatment.

Make recommendations to the physician relative to the need to continue or discontinue physical therapy treatment.

Provide appropriate documentation of each patient visit in accordance with departmental policies and procedures.

Be responsible for the maintenance and care of all equipment and apparatus.

Be responsible for the economical use of supplies, linens and utilities.

Provide appropriate billing for each patient visit in accordance with departmental policies and procedures.

Assist in on-the-job training of all ancillary personnel.

Minimum qualifications for the ideal future caregiver include:

Bachelor's Degree or certificate

Graduate of a Physical Therapy Program accredited by the American Physical Therapy Association or related international degree

Current state licensure as a Physical Therapist (PT)

Current Basic Life Support (BLS) Certification through the American Heart Association (AHA) or American Red Cross
