Campbell Hall is seeking a dedicated Physical Therapist to join our therapy department and help our residents regain mobility, independence, and confidence. You'll work with people at all stages of recovery—from post-surgical rehabilitation to managing chronic conditions—in a collaborative, person-centered environment.

As a Physical Therapist, you're a core member of our interdisciplinary care team. You'll conduct comprehensive assessments, design individualized treatment plans, and lead hands-on therapy sessions that make a real difference in residents' daily function and quality of life. Your work directly supports residents' goals to return home or maintain the highest level of independence possible.

What you'll do

  • Perform initial and ongoing physical therapy evaluations, including range of motion, strength, balance, and functional mobility assessments
  • Develop and implement individualized treatment plans based on resident goals and medical history
  • Conduct direct therapy sessions—gait training, therapeutic exercise, balance and fall-prevention work, and functional mobility training
  • Monitor resident progress, adjust treatment as needed, and document outcomes in the medical record
  • Collaborate with nursing, social work, and the care team to coordinate discharge planning and community resources
  • Communicate regularly with residents and families about therapy progress and realistic expectations
  • Stay current with evidence-based practice and participate in continuing education
  • Maintain compliance with HIPAA, infection control, and facility safety protocols

What you'll bring

  • Clinical judgment and problem-solving skills—you adapt your approach to each resident's unique needs and abilities
  • Strong communication: you explain therapy goals clearly to residents and families, and you document thoroughly
  • Compassion and patience, especially working with older adults managing pain, fear, or cognitive changes
  • Teamwork and respect for the contributions of nurses, aides, and other disciplines
  • Physical stamina and willingness to be hands-on—you're comfortable standing, bending, and assisting residents throughout your shift

Why join us

  • Meaningful work: you see the direct impact of your care on residents' recovery and independence
  • Supportive team culture that values collaboration and professional growth
  • Opportunity to work with a diverse resident population and refine your skills across the continuum of care
  • Access to continuing education and professional development resources
  • A facility committed to evidence-based practice and resident-centered care

Requirements

  • Current, active New York State Physical Therapist license (PT)
  • Bachelor's degree minimum in Physical Therapy (DPT or equivalent); graduation from an accredited PT program
  • Ability to work full-time hours as scheduled
  • Physical ability to perform direct patient care, including standing for extended periods, bending, lifting, and assisting residents with transfers and mobility tasks
  • Negative tuberculosis (TB) test or proof of immunity per facility policy
  • COVID-19 vaccination status per facility policy
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Demonstrated ability to work collaboratively with interdisciplinary teams and communicate effectively with residents and families
