PT Opportunity – Glendale, AZ
Ardor Health Solutions is seeking a Physical Therapist for a unique outpatient geriatric travel assignment in Glendale, Arizona, part of the greater Phoenix metro.
This position provides 1:1 outpatient therapy to geriatric patients within an Assisted Living community, giving you the opportunity to focus on individualized care without the pace and multiple-patient scheduling commonly found in high-volume outpatient clinics.
Position Highlights
- Outpatient therapy within an Assisted Living Facility
- 1:1 patient-care model
- Geriatric patient population
- Individualized treatment sessions
- PT evaluations and plans of care
- Gait and balance training
- Strengthening and fall prevention
- Functional mobility and transfer training
- Focus on maintaining independence and quality of life
- Great fit for a PT who enjoys geriatrics but prefers an outpatient-style treatment model
- Phoenix metro location
What You'll Do
You'll evaluate and treat geriatric patients within their Assisted Living community, developing individualized plans of care focused on mobility, strength, balance, safety, fall prevention, and maintaining independence.
Because this is a 1:1 care model, you'll have dedicated treatment time with each patient rather than routinely treating multiple patients simultaneously.
Qualifications
- Graduate of an accredited Physical Therapy program
- Current Arizona PT license or Compact privilege
- Current BLS certification
- Strong evaluation and treatment skills
- Comfortable working independently
- Geriatric, outpatient, ALF, SNF, or senior-living experience preferred
- Strong communication and documentation skills
