Helping People Stay Independent in the Later Chapters of Life
Independence Rehab is seeking a compassionate PRN Physical Therapist (PT) who finds purpose in helping older adults regain mobility, confidence, and dignity.

As a contract therapy provider partnering with Independence Rehab, you'll support residents navigating recovery, chronic conditions, and life transitions - providing therapy that truly changes daily life.

Whether you're looking to supplement your schedule, maintain clinical variety, or stay connected to meaningful geriatric care, Independence Rehab offers flexible PRN opportunities in a supportive environment.

What a Day Looks Like
As a PRN PT in our geriatric programs, your day is relationship-driven, collaborative, and clinically meaningful.

You'll treat a medically complex geriatric population in a setting where clinical reasoning, compassion, and flexibility are valued.

• Performing evaluations and contributing to individualized plans of care as needed
• Guiding residents through mobility milestones - first steps, safe transfers, returning home
• Leading gait, balance, strengthening, and functional training sessions
• Helping reduce fall risk and build confidence with daily activities
• Supervising and collaborating with PTAs when scheduled
• Adjusting care plans based on patient progress and clinical judgment
• Working alongside nursing, OT, and speech to support whole-person recovery
• Providing reliable coverage for vacations, caseload fluctuations, and program growth

• Structured onboarding and integration
• Documentation and workflow training
• Support from experienced therapy leadership
• Ongoing clinical resources when you need them

New grads are welcomed and supported.

PRN Benefits & Perks

• Continuing education support opportunities
• Access to clinical resources and mentorship
• Opportunity to transition to part-time or full-time if desired
