Acute Care Hospital Physical Therapist

Acute Care Physical Therapist — High-Impact Hospital Role An Acute Care Physical Therapist can accelerate an exciting, mission-driven career with a respected Western Washington hospital 🚀. The Acute Care Physical Therapist will step into a dynamic, innovation-forward acute care setting that values clinical excellence and compassionate outcomes.

Why This Organization Stands Out The Acute Care Physical Therapist will join a community-supported, award-recognized hospital known for superior patient safety, outstanding experience scores, and continuous quality achievements. Equipped with modernized inpatient units, ceiling-mounted lift systems, advanced mobility technology, real-time EMR documentation, and evidence-based early mobility pathways, the Acute Care Physical Therapist will practice with cutting-edge tools, strong community philanthropy, robust continuing education, specialty certification support, and clear advancement opportunities in a collaborative culture.

Team Structure, Support, and Clinical Scope The Acute Care Physical Therapist will report to a Rehabilitation Services Manager within a supportive Ancillary Services leadership structure, surrounded by friendly nurses and a diverse care team of occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, hospitalists, case managers, respiratory therapists, and social workers. With dependable rehab tech assistance and mentorship, the Acute Care Physical Therapist will evaluate and treat varied inpatient populations (post-surgical, orthopedic, neurological, and cardiopulmonary), champion safe early mobility, refine discharge planning, educate patients and families, document with precision, and contribute to interdisciplinary rounds, process improvements, and evidence-based initiatives.

Life in Western Washington The Acute Care Physical Therapist will thrive in Western Washington’s coastal-to-cascade lifestyle 🌊—from ferry rides, kayaking, and whale watching on Puget Sound to hiking alpine trails in the Olympics and Cascades. With renowned concert venues, vibrant arts districts, farmers markets, and a celebrated culinary scene featuring Pacific Northwest seafood, craft coffee, breweries, and farm-to-table cuisine, the Acute Care Physical Therapist will enjoy a mild four-season climate, rich cultural experiences across Seattle, the San Juan Islands, and the Olympic Peninsula, and a balanced, outdoor-forward way of life.

Compensation, Benefits, and Next Steps The Acute Care Physical Therapist will earn competitive compensation up to $150,000, supported by a full suite of health and retirement benefits, generous paid time off, wellness resources, and professional development funding. To learn more in confidence, the Acute Care Physical Therapist is invited to connect with a Clinical Management Consultants recruiter and explore how this opportunity can elevate a meaningful physical therapy career in an acute care hospital environment.
