Physical Therapist

PruittHealth is seeking a compassionate and skilled Physical Therapist to join our Healthcare & Medical Services team. In this role, you will provide high-quality, evidence-based physical therapy services to patients across a continuum of care that may include skilled nursing, rehabilitation, home health, and hospice-related support. You will evaluate patients with diverse medical and functional needs, develop individualized treatment plans, and deliver therapeutic interventions to help them restore function, reduce pain, increase mobility, and improve overall quality of life.
As a Physical Therapist with PruittHealth, you will complete thorough assessments, set realistic and measurable goals in collaboration with patients, families, and the interdisciplinary care team, and regularly reassess progress to adjust treatment plans. You will provide therapeutic exercises, gait and balance training, functional mobility training, neuromuscular re-education, and patient and caregiver education tailored to each patient’s abilities and goals. You will document all evaluations, treatments, and patient responses accurately and timely within our electronic medical record system, ensuring compliance with regulatory, payer, and professional practice standards.
You will work closely with physicians, nurses, occupational and speech therapists, social workers, and other team members to coordinate patient-centered care plans and safe discharges or transitions of care. You will contribute to fall-prevention initiatives, equipment and assistive device recommendations, and home safety planning when appropriate. As a key clinical resource, you will educate patients, families, and caregivers on safe mobility techniques, proper use of assistive devices, energy conservation, and home exercise programs to promote long-term functional independence.
PruittHealth fosters an inclusive culture grounded in dignity, respect, and professional growth. In this role, you will participate in ongoing training, mentorship, and development opportunities to enhance your clinical skills and advance your career. You will uphold all ethical and professional standards of physical therapy practice, adhere to organizational policies and procedures, and support quality improvement and patient satisfaction initiatives.
This position is ideal for a Physical Therapist who is passionate about working with medically complex and geriatric populations, values teamwork in a nurturing environment, and is committed to making a meaningful difference in patient outcomes. You should be comfortable working in a fast-paced clinical setting, managing a varied caseload, and adapting your approach to meet the unique needs and goals of each patient while supporting PruittHealth’s mission to provide high-quality, compassionate care across the Southeastern U.S.
