Overview
Physician Assistant - Full Time
Advanced Care Hospital of Montana in Billings, Montana is a freestanding critical care and inpatient rehabilitation hospital providing advanced interdisciplinary care to patients with critical, complex, and recovery‑focused medical needs. As the region’s leading specialty hospital, we care for individuals who have survived serious illness, trauma, or surgery but require extended recovery time and a higher level of medical attention than typically provided in a traditional hospital setting.
Our dual mission includes both long‑term acute care and comprehensive inpatient rehabilitation. We offer specialized services such as ventilator weaning and respiratory therapy, cardiac monitoring and recovery, complex wound and infection treatment, and intensive rehabilitation for patients regaining strength, mobility, and independence after prolonged ICU stays.
Our rehabilitation program includes Physical Therapy (PT), Occupational Therapy (OT), and Speech-Language Pathology (SLP), tailored to each patient’s unique goals for recovery. With all private rooms and a highly skilled team—including physicians, ICU/critical‑care nurses, and respiratory therapists—we deliver individualized, compassionate care that supports both medical stability and functional progress.
Advanced Care Hospital of Montana is Joint Commission accredited and nationally recognized for quality care. We proudly serve patients and families from across Montana, Wyoming, and South Dakota, offering a healing environment where progress is measured not just in milestones but in moments of regained independence. We are currently seeking a Physician Assistant (PA) to support our interdisciplinary team in delivering high‑quality, compassionate care in a dynamic rehabilitation environment.
Key Responsibilities
Provide medical care under the supervision of a physician, including assessments, treatment planning, progress evaluations, and documentation
Conduct daily rounds and collaborate closely with physicians, nurses, and therapists to ensure coordinated and patient‑centered care
Participate in team conferences and contribute to discharge planning
Respond to medical emergencies and acute changes in patient condition
Provide patient and family education related to the rehabilitation process, medication management, and follow‑up care
Qualifications
Graduate of an accredited Physician Assistant program
Current and valid PA license in the State of Montana
Certification by the National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants (NCCPA)
Prior experience in acute or post‑acute care preferred; rehabilitation experience is a plus
Strong communication, collaboration, and critical thinking skills
