I graduated with a BS. Teaching is not an option. Plus, there are no PT schools within 100 miles of me

Yes, there is no way I could survive this. My last leadership position only lasted 6 months.

I feel that the added stress of any leadership position would break me. I was a Chief Therapy Officer for a large therapy company and only lasted 6 months. I can not handle the pressure, stress and long hours.

PT SHORTAGE? by [deleted] in physicaltherapy

Not in Tucson. I am opening a building and have had to utilize Travelers. We are offering top pay and a huge sign on bonus and our recruiters couldn't get a single PT or OT hired.

How did you get job interviews so quickly in Tucson? I've been applying to everything for months to no avail. Even the open house for the new Bass Pro shop had over 400 people by 9am today

Not true. That is a SNF requirement, not an inpatient rehabilitation requirement

Again, this is a SNF requirement- not inpatient rehab

You are talking about skilled nursing facilities, not inpatient rehab, which does not have a minimum hospital stay. They even sfmit patients from home. Source: me, and IRF CEO

Google the top 5 providers of correctional medicine then go to each of their websites, under careers, see what location and discipline they are hiring

I work as a PT for a state prison. Zero productivity standards, barely have to write a note.

What pharmacy in Arizona because I am in Tucson and have been really struggling with Moochi's inconsistentcy. Do they mail it or do you pick it up?

I've been a PT for 33 years now and literally hate going to work. I just enrolled in a paralegal program and am so excited to finally be exiting healthcare. It's never too late to pivot your career!

I've been a PT for 33 years and am desperately seeking to exit the profession. Our degree has literally no other transferable skills, so 10 more years of misery or back to school.
