LCMC Health
Your job is more than a job. As a physical therapist, no two days and no two patients are alike. You champion multiple patients as they begin their physical rehabilitation journey. Whether it’s a neurological issue or a physical trauma, you encourage, comfort, and ready your patients for therapy, interacting with physicians, case managers, nurses, and families as part of a team care approach. You celebrate the ordinary, because in the world of rehabilitation, just the act of taking a few steps may be an extraordinary milestone for your patient.
And while you focus on your patient’s “extraordinary”, we focus on giving you the tangible and intangible resources that foster the “little something extras” you need to amplify your impact and grow your expertise. Your experiences, knowledge, skills, empathy, compassion, and personality, all of it adds up to you. We’re excited to get to know you and find out what you will bring to this critical rehabilitation role.
