This Physical Therapist opportunity is based in Overland Park, Kansas, a vibrant and welcoming community in the Kansas City metro area. Overland Park is consistently recognized as one of the best places to live in the United States, known for its safe neighborhoods, highly rated schools, and strong sense of community. The city offers a blend of suburban comfort and urban convenience, with easy access to parks, trails, local shops, and a wide array of dining options. Nearby attractions include the Overland Park Arboretum and Botanical Gardens, the Deanna Rose Children’s Farmstead, and extensive recreational paths for walking, running, and cycling. Residents enjoy a family-friendly environment, a thriving local arts and culture scene, and convenient proximity to Kansas City’s professional sports venues, museums, and entertainment districts. The facility provides a primarily outpatient environment with a general physical therapy caseload reflective of a rural and small-community patient population. Approximately 95% of your work will be in the outpatient setting, where you will see a broad mix of diagnoses, including orthopedic, post-surgical, musculoskeletal, balance and gait disorders, chronic pain, and general deconditioning. You will also support a small inpatient acute care component, providing early mobility and basic rehabilitation services to patients following surgery, illness, or injury, and collaborating closely with nursing and medical staff on safe discharge planning. In addition, there is an ongoing need for pediatric services, giving you the opportunity to treat children with general developmental, orthopedic, and neurologic needs in a supportive setting. A typical day in this role includes performing comprehensive evaluations, creating individualized, evidence-based treatment plans, and delivering hands-on care through therapeutic exercise, manual therapy, neuromuscular re-education, balance training, and patient education. You will manage a full schedule of patients, document all care in an electronic medical record, and collaborate with an interdisciplinary team to ensure high-quality, patient-centered outcomes. Outpatient patient volumes are designed to support effective, individualized care while allowing you to maintain productivity standards. In the small inpatient acute care area, you will see a limited number of patients each day, focusing on safety, functional mobility, and readiness for discharge. This is a full-time, temp-direct role with an expected schedule of 40 hours per week, working day shifts in a 5x8-hour format. The structure offers stability and routine, with consistent daytime hours that support work-life balance. The environment emphasizes professional collaboration, respect, and a strong commitment to patient care. Providers benefit from the combination of outpatient variety and acute care experience, making this an excellent opportunity for a Physical Therapist who wants to broaden their skills in a mixed setting and gain experience with a rural-type caseload while still enjoying all the amenities of a major metropolitan area.
