JOB SUMMARY: Physical therapists (PTs) are health‑care professionals who diagnose and treat individuals of all ages, from newborns to the very oldest, who have medical problems or other health‑related conditions that limit their ability to move and perform functional activities in daily life. PTs examine each individual and develop a plan using treatment techniques to promote the ability to move, reduce pain, restore function, and prevent disability.
They also work with individuals to prevent loss of mobility before it occurs by developing fitness‑ and wellness‑oriented programs for healthier, more active lifestyles. A PT meets the patient’s goals and needs and provides quality care by assessing and interpreting evaluation results and determining PT treatment plans in consultation with physicians or by prescription. They also help patients complete their treatment plan by administering exercises, instructing in form and technique, encouraging progression, and training patients in performing physical activities such as job or daily activity‑related functions.
PTs occasionally teach the proper use of assistive and supportive devices such as crutches, canes, braces, home modality units, and prostheses. PTs must have exceptional interpersonal and reasoning skills, and strive to be positive examples of health and wellness for their patients. PTs are expected to keep abreast of best‑practice and utilize research evidence to make clinical decisions in conjunction with patient preferences and clinical experience.
