About the Position
The Primary Care Physiotherapist role at VCHC is part of a collaborative, interdisciplinary team that values person-centred care. You'll have the opportunity to work across a wide spectrum of cases — from post-surgical rehab and chronic disease management to falls prevention and long-term care support.
This position is responsible for working in collaboration with an inter-professional care team and defined network of PCN Physicians, Nurse Practitioners, Nursing and other members of the Allied Health team. The goal is to conduct integrated care planning, offer client assessments/clinic visits and provide ongoing monitoring and self-management support follow-up for clients (i.e. adults, seniors, pediatrics) and/or those with multiple chronic conditions, either in an individual or group setting and often directly within the Physician/Nurse Practitioner. You will see clients, utilizing therapeutic inventions that contribute to providing wider and quicker access to services for patients with chronic and musculoskeletal conditions and/or barriers to exercise.
What Makes VCHC Unique?
• Interdisciplinary Collaboration: You’ll work closely with physicians, nurses, occupational therapists, social workers, and home health professionals.
• Rural Generalist Practice: The diverse caseload keeps your practice dynamic and deeply rewarding.
• Supportive Environment: Though rural, the facility is well-resourced and connected to a larger regional health network.
• Flexible Work Options: This is a position that offers the successful candidate flexibility of selecting their preferred days of work within a Monday to Friday schedule. Shift times are 08:30 to 16:30.
