Job Description

Physical Therapist Practice Owner | Memory Care

Own the Practice. Lead the Clinical Program. Make a Difference Every Day.

Carlsbad, CA

What if you could own the clinical practice you built without having to build the infrastructure behind it?

Prava partners with exceptional clinicians to build and operate concierge-style therapy practices inside senior living communities. We provide the technology, billing, credentialing, operations, marketing, referrals, and business infrastructure.

You bring the clinical leadership. We power the practice.

We’re looking for a Physical Therapist Practice Owner to lead a thriving therapy program within a memory care community — someone who understands that exceptional therapy in memory care looks different, requires different clinical reasoning, and demands a deep understanding of the resident, the environment, and the people supporting them.

This is not a traditional PT job.

You won't be walking into a schedule and simply treating the next resident.

You will have the opportunity to build something.

As the Practice Owner, you will become the clinical leader and face of the therapy practice within the community. You'll develop relationships with residents, families, caregivers, nurses, physicians, leadership, and community partners while building a program that becomes an integral part of the community.

What You'll Own

- Lead the physical therapy program within a dedicated memory care community

- Maintain a highly visible, consistent presence in the community

- Evaluate and treat residents using strong clinical reasoning and individualized care plans

- Develop meaningful relationships with residents, families, caregivers, and community leadership

- Identify residents who may benefit from skilled therapy and develop appropriate referral pathways

- Build a therapy culture focused on function, mobility, safety, participation, and quality of life

- Collaborate with nursing, wellness, activities, physicians, families, and other care partners

- Mentor and lead additional clinicians as the practice grows

- Monitor clinical outcomes, utilization, documentation, and practice performance

- Participate in Prava's operating rhythm, including weekly coaching and reporting

- Help identify opportunities to expand services and better serve the community

- Become the clinical expert and trusted therapy resource for the community

Memory Care Requires a Different Kind of Clinician

We're looking for someone who understands that dementia does not mean “nothing can be done.”

It means clinical goals, communication, interventions, environment, caregiver involvement, and measures of success may need to look different.

You should be comfortable thinking beyond a diagnosis and asking:

What matters to this resident?

What is limiting their ability to participate in daily life?

What can we realistically improve, maintain, or prevent?

How can therapy make the resident's day safer, more functional, and more meaningful?

We value clinicians who can demonstrate strong foundational clinical reasoning without losing sight of the person in front of them.

What Prava Provides

You focus on building an exceptional clinical practice.

We handle the infrastructure behind it.

Prava provides:

- EHR and practice management technology

- AI-enabled documentation tools

- Revenue cycle management

- Credentialing and payer support

- Marketing and referral infrastructure

- Operational support

- Practice Owner coaching

- Business intelligence and reporting

- A clinical leadership team invested in your success

What We're Looking For:

- Licensed Physical Therapist

- Strong clinical reasoning and communication skills

- Genuine interest in senior living and memory care

- Entrepreneurial mindset

- Comfortable being visible and accountable within a community

- Ability to build relationships and earn trust

- Strong documentation and clinical standards

- Desire to lead rather than simply treat

- Willingness to make a full-time commitment to the practice and community

Why Become a Prava Practice Owner?

Because there is a difference between having a job and building a practice.

You get the autonomy and leadership opportunity of ownership without having to figure out billing, credentialing, technology, marketing, operations, or infrastructure on your own.

You own the clinical practice.

Prava powers the business.

And in memory care, that means having the opportunity to build a therapy program where success isn't measured simply by how many visits you provide — but by how effectively you help residents move, participate, connect, and live.

If you're ready to build something instead of simply clocking in, let's talk.

Prava is looking for clinicians who want to lead.
