Hillcrest Rehab Services provides therapy support across Hillcrest Health & Living’s skilled nursing communities, including post-acute rehabilitation, short-term recovery, and long-term care. Physical Therapists play an important role in helping patients improve mobility, strength, balance, pain management, safety, and independence.

Working closely with onsite clinical teams, Physical Therapists create individualized plans of care that help patients recover after illness, injury, surgery, or hospitalization while supporting greater confidence, function, and quality of life.

At Hillcrest, our mission is simple:
Inspiring people to live their best lives. We are looking for a Physical Therapist who values clinical excellence, teamwork, and meaningful patient relationships.

You will:

• Complete physical therapy evaluations using appropriate tests and measures to establish timely plans of care.
• Provide treatment interventions that support mobility, strength, balance, endurance, pain management, gait, transfers, and functional independence.
• Progress treatment plans using evidence-based guidelines, reimbursement requirements, and patient goals.
• Educate patients and family members using effective, culturally sensitive communication that considers individual cognitive needs.
• Complete accurate documentation and charging to support therapy services.
• Collaborate with physicians, nursing, therapy team members, and other interdisciplinary partners to support each patient’s care plan.
• Plan safe and effective transitions within or outside Hillcrest service lines, including recommended services, equipment needs, and handoff communication.
• Supervise, collaborate with, and delegate appropriate tasks to Physical Therapist Assistants, technicians, and support personnel in accordance with regulations.
• Identify patients who may benefit from additional medical or therapy services and complete screenings as needed.
• Manage an efficient patient schedule while considering safety, preferences, environmental needs, and productivity expectations.
• Identify risks related to patient care, infection control, equipment, documentation, and safety, then take appropriate action.
• Participate in professional development, clinical education, advocacy, presentations, or other activities that support the therapy profession.

We are looking for a Physical Therapist who is clinically curious, compassionate, and committed to helping aging adults improve mobility, confidence, and independence.

New graduates are encouraged to apply. This is a strong opportunity for an early-career PT who wants hands‑on experience, interdisciplinary collaboration, and the chance to develop clinical confidence in a supportive rehabilitation setting.

Experienced PTs will also find meaningful opportunities to apply advanced clinical judgment, mentor others, help guide care transitions, and make a lasting impact on patient outcomes.

• A passion for helping patients regain mobility, confidence, and independence.
• Strong communication and relationship‑building skills with patients, families, providers, and team members.
• A willingness to learn, ask questions, and grow within a collaborative therapy environment.
• Strong clinical judgment or the desire to build it through mentorship and experience.
• Ability to stay organized, complete accurate documentation, and manage competing priorities.
• A calm, flexible, and professional approach in changing or stressful situations.
• Previous experience in skilled nursing, post‑acute care, hospital, home health, outpatient, or a similar setting is welcomed but not required.
