  • Work closely with other clinical professionals, as part of an interdisciplinary team
  • Support patients with neurological, developmental, and behavioral challenges using safe, trauma-informed approaches
  • Educate families and caregivers on exercises and strategies to continue progress outside therapy sessions
  • Track patient progress and complete documentation in the medical record
  • Participate in team meetings, care planning, and quality improvement activities
  • Help maintain a safe, positive, and structured therapy environment for every patient
Requirements
  • Bachelor’s degree in Physical Therapy required (DPT preferred)
  • At least 2 years of clinical experience preferred
  • Experience in pediatrics, neurology, or rehabilitation strongly preferred
  • Comfortable working with medically complex and behaviorally challenged pediatric patients
  • Strong teamwork, communication, and clinical decision-making skills
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced, interdisciplinary hospital environment

Licensures / Certifications
