The Physiotherapist II is a key member of the Allied Health & Patient Experience team at Alberta Hospital Edmonton. AHE is a large, beautiful campus located in northeast Edmonton where you will enjoy nature, walking trails, free parking and other amenities including a large gym and pool. The role is centralized and provides services to adult patients in all areas, focusing on both injury/illness prevention and rehabilitation. Working within a large interdisciplinary team, the physiotherapist will conduct assessments and provide diagnoses, treatments and care planning for clients with physical or functional mobility deficits. This role will involve both collaborative and independent practice as well as program development. You will have the opportunity to collaborate with RecT and OT to facilitate group programs that focus on wellness and maintenance of function. The PT ensures that their practice is evidence-based, client centered and meets the physical therapy standards of practice. In conjunction with the physical aspects of Physiotherapy, a large and meaningful aspect of the job is to have compassion, empathy and understanding for individuals managing Mental Health & Addictions and having a willingness to meet the clients where they are both physically and mentally.
As a Physiotherapist (PT) II, you will provide coordination of physiotherapy and other allied health clinical services. You will provide supervision of students and team members as assigned. You will work both independently and as part of an interdisciplinary team providing leadership to other healthcare professionals. You will make day-to-day clinical decisions on patient/family needs regarding assessment, intervention, discharge and follow-up. You will make decisions and advise team members on complex clinical cases and provide clinical leadership within the program or service area to ensure safe, efficient and effective client care. You will ensure physiotherapy practice is evidence based and in alignment with Alberta legislation and regulations, professional standards of practice, code of ethics and Recovery Alberta policy and guidelines. You will coordinate the day-to-day operations of an assigned service area and monitor care delivery, identifying service needs and assisting other medical staff with caseload management, completing chart audits and providing follow-up and feedback to staff. You will participate in program development and operational planning and represent the department on committees or programs. You will make decisions on staffing level requirements, workflow, caseload priorities in collaboration with managers and other healthcare providers. Recovery Alberta is dedicated to supporting our PT's in their practice area and expanding their skillsets regardless of location.
