Physical Therapy is a profoundly important practice in caring for our Veterans. It serves as an alternative to surgery, prevents injury, increases mobility, reduces pain and restores independence. At VA, Physical Therapists develop unique and resourceful treatment plans for complex medical conditions. And beyond physical rehabilitation, our Physical Therapists develop wellness and fitness programs tailored to each Veteran’s personal needs. Through this emotionally rewarding practice, our patients and therapists form strong interpersonal levels of trust. Ultimately, our Physical Therapists help Veterans understand their injuries so they can get back to their everyday lives and enjoy long-term health and mobility benefits.
If you’re a Physical Therapist, consider using your skills to improve Veterans’ quality of life. Beyond a rewarding career path, you’ll enjoy a generous and comprehensive benefits package, including our competitive salaries, work/life balance, education support, benefits, flexible work schedules, and hiring programs and incentives.
