Job Details

Overview

 

Imagine starting your morning knowing that by the end of the day, you'll have helped someone stand on their own two feet again — literally. As a Physical Therapist, the work you do goes far beyond exercise and movement. You become the bridge between where a patient is and where they desperately want to be. You restore function, yes — but more than that, you restore confidence, independence, and a sense of self that illness or injury can so easily take away.

 

We are actively seeking a dedicated and clinically sharp Physical Therapist (DPT) to become a core part of our growing team in Indianapolis, Indiana — a city that blends big-city energy with genuine Midwestern warmth. Here, your clinical career doesn't just grow; it thrives inside a community that's as welcoming as it is inspiring.

 

Description

  • Conduct comprehensive patient evaluations across inpatient or outpatient environments and develop individualized, goal-driven treatment plans
  • Deliver hands-on physical therapy interventions targeting mobility restoration, strength building, balance, and overall functional independence
  • Partner with a multidisciplinary team including physicians, nursing staff, case managers, and fellow rehabilitation specialists to drive optimal outcomes
  • Provide patient and family education around therapeutic goals, safe home exercise programs, and discharge preparation
  • Maintain thorough, accurate documentation of evaluations, treatment sessions, and patient progress in alignment with facility and regulatory standards
  • Engage actively in interdisciplinary rounds and care conferences to support coordinated, patient-centered care delivery

 

Education

  • Doctorate in Physical Therapy (DPT) or equivalent qualifying degree from an accredited institution

 

Certifications

  • Active state licensure as a Physical Therapist in good standing
  • CPR certification preferred
  • Advanced or specialty certifications such as neurological or geriatric rehab are welcomed but not required

 

Skills

  • Prior clinical experience is strongly preferred
  • Demonstrated ability to manage patients presenting with complex medical and mobility challenges
  • Outstanding interpersonal and communication skills with a natural ability to collaborate across care teams
  • Proficiency with electronic health records and digital clinical documentation platforms

 

Benefits

  • Highly competitive compensation that reflects your expertise and dedication
  • Full benefits package including medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • Continuing education support and licensure renewal reimbursement
  • Generous paid time off and flexible scheduling arrangements
  • A team culture rooted in mutual respect, mentorship, and long-term career development

 

What You'll Be Doing

 

No two days on this team will look the same, and that's exactly what makes this role so rewarding. One morning you might be guiding a post-surgical patient through their first weight-bearing steps. By afternoon, you're fine-tuning a stroke survivor's balance training, watching determination replace doubt in real time.

 

This is deeply human work — precise and purposeful, demanding and deeply fulfilling. You'll craft individualized treatment strategies, respond dynamically as your patients progress, and play a central role in discharge planning to ensure every patient transitions home safely and confidently. Your clinical instincts will be sharpened daily, and your sense of purpose will be renewed with every small victory.

 

The pace is real, the responsibility is meaningful, and the impact you'll have is immeasurable.

 

Who We're Looking For

 

Beyond the degree and the license, we're looking for someone who genuinely believes in what they do. Someone who sees a patient's frustration not as an obstacle, but as an invitation to dig deeper. Someone who understands that recovery is rarely linear — and shows up anyway, every single time.

 

Whether you're stepping into one of your first positions as a Physical Therapist or you're a seasoned clinician looking for a team and environment that truly matches your drive, we want to hear your story. Clinical excellence matters here, but so does the kind of human connection that turns a difficult recovery into a transformative journey.

 

Your Next Chapter Starts in Indianapolis

 

Indianapolis is a city that surprises people. It has the kind of energy you'd expect from a major metropolitan hub — a thriving arts and dining scene, professional sports excitement, a booming healthcare corridor, and neighborhoods that feel like genuine communities. It's a place where your career can accelerate and your quality of life can flourish, often at the same time.

 

The cost of living is remarkably accessible for a city of its caliber, which means your salary stretches further here than in many comparable markets. Whether you're drawn to the cultural pulse of Mass Ave, the green spaces along the Monon Trail, or the warmth of close-knit suburban communities just minutes from downtown, Indianapolis offers a backdrop that complements a life well lived.

 

And within our walls, you'll find a team that shows up for each other the same way they show up for their patients. Collaborative, growth-minded, and genuinely passionate about the work — this is the kind of culture that makes Monday mornings feel different.

 

If you're ready to move people forward — and move your own career forward in the process — we'd love to connect. Your calling is here. Come answer it.
