Your responsibilities include maintaining accurate and timely documentation, supporting departmental policies and procedures, and contributing to an organized, efficient, and patient-centered environment.

Candidates must complete a physical therapy program at an accredited institution, hold a current Iowa Physical Therapy license, and maintain required certifications. A valid Iowa driver’s license, basic computer proficiency, and the ability to work flexible hours are required.
