Location

Kent, WA | United States

Job description

Independence Rehab is actively looking to hire a full time Physical Therapist Assistant to care for our geriatric patients at Arbor Village (Kent) and Solstice at Normandy Park. Both are lovely, well-regarded Assisted Living Facilities. In this role, you will float between facilities and treat patients on an outpatient basis.

We prefer a PTA with prior geriatrics experience, but we will consider all Washington-licensed applicants!

Here are a few SNF practice-specific items:

• Occasionally treating clinically complex patients
• Proficient with all types of transfers
• Provide mobility re-training

If you need help with any of the above competencies, we are happy to provide competency training!

A few benefits:

• Flexible day-to-day work schedule. We are happy to work with your unique needs, to ensure your patients receive the care they need!
• Continuing education benefit: up to $750 per year, for approved courses.
• Complete medical/dental/vision insurance benefits. Employer-matching 401k retirement program.
• Up to 3 weeks' paid time off per year

Requirements:

• Current WA PTA license in good standing
• Associate degree from an accredited college or university
• Organized, self-starter with a love for the geriatric population

Our preference is a therapist who has worked at least one year in a skilled nursing facility, but if you are a caring, passionate, licensed therapist who enjoys the geriatric population, we would love to hear from you!

At Independence Rehab, our goal in a skilled nursing facility (SNF) is to provide each patient with top-quality care. We strive to maximize each patient's functional independence to safely discharge her/him to the next level of care.

We are a people-first organization. Really! Our guiding motto is leading with integrity, empowering people, delivering outcomes.
