Physical Therapist

Come join an enthusiastic team of therapists who are highly engaged and have a combined experience level of over 70 years! Even if you're a new grad, you'll enjoy having experienced mentors by your side. The best parts of working at PACHS are generous time off with accrual of PTO starting immediately upon hire; flexibility of schedule; IPERS retirement plan; and everyone's favorite which is 'scheduled' documentation time! This rehab team is awesome at providing coverage to allow each other time off to spend on vacationing which prevents burnout. Plus, you'll never be bored because we get to see inpatients, outpatients and home care clients of all ages for a variety of diagnoses. Our department has an awesome reputation, high Press Ganey patient 'would recommend' scores; and a newer remodeled department including a therapy pool and other state of the art equipment. Another amazing benefit is only having to do weekend inpatient coverage every 8 or 9 weeks, so only 6 weekends a year and co-workers are constantly switching weekends to accommodate his/her personal lives. If you want flexibility-come talk to us! You won't regret it! Competitive pay scale and benefits, too.
