Overview Current Employees and Students: Please log in to Workday to use the internal job search and application process. Rehabilitation team members are licensed or certified professionals (physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech/language pathologists, social workers or therapeutic recreation specialists) who work within a specific team structure to offer inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation services. These services are offered to the acute-care hospital, the acute inpatient rehabilitation facility (Dodd Hall), or outpatient service sites to patients with disorders and conditions associated primarily with traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, stroke, or other neurogenic disorders, orthopedic problems, burns, amputations, cancer, or chronic pain. The rehabilitation team member reports to the rehabilitation team leaders as part of the overall Rehabilitation Services Division structure. Each rehabilitation team member is part of a group effort to provide care within a continuous performance improvement environment, and a distinct professional who provides specific contributions to the team approach. Team members assess patients and establish plans of care together; provide a wide variety of treatment techniques; educate and support patients and families; and facilitate continuing care planning. Team members evaluate quality of services and participate in outcomes management activities. The Physical Therapy Team Member in rehabilitation and lymphedema in the James Ambulatory Services department will also have advance knowledge in the treatment of oncology patients and will be competent in the evaluation and treatment of lymphedema with complete decongestive therapy (CDT, MLD).
