Recruiting PT's, OT's, Chiropractors, Nurses & other Health Care Professionals | Doctor of Chiropractic | Founder of Medicruit | Providing Top Level Medical Professionals! ☤🩺
𝐓𝐨𝐩 𝐒𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐬 𝐄𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐲𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐋𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐢𝐧 𝐏𝐓/𝐎𝐓 𝐂𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬 As a Doctor of Chiropractic and the Founder of Medicruit, I’ve spent years recruiting top-tier healthcare professionals, including physical therapists (PTs) and occupational therapists (OTs). Employers are always on the lookout for candidates who not only have the necessary qualifications but also possess key skills that set them apart. Here are the top skills employers look for in PT/OT candidates: 1. Clinical Expertise: A deep understanding of anatomy, physiology, and therapeutic techniques is crucial. Employers seek candidates with strong clinical skills who can effectively diagnose and treat patients, ensuring optimal recovery and rehabilitation outcomes. 2. Communication Skills: Effective communication is essential in healthcare. PTs and OTs must be able to explain treatment plans clearly to patients and their families, collaborate with other healthcare professionals, and document patient progress accurately. 3. Empathy and Compassion: Healthcare is about caring for people. Employers look for candidates who demonstrate empathy and compassion, providing emotional support and building trust with patients throughout their treatment journey. 4. Problem-Solving Abilities: PTs and OTs often encounter complex cases that require creative and effective solutions. Strong problem-solving skills enable therapists to develop individualized treatment plans and adapt them as needed to achieve the best outcomes. 5. Physical Stamina: The nature of PT and OT work can be physically demanding. Employers value candidates who have the physical stamina to perform tasks such as lifting patients, demonstrating exercises, and standing for extended periods. 6. Attention to Detail: Precision is critical in healthcare. Attention to detail ensures that treatment protocols are followed accurately, patient progress is monitored closely, and any changes in condition are promptly addressed. 7. Interpersonal Skills: Building rapport with patients and colleagues is vital. Employers seek candidates who can establish positive relationships, work well within a team, and create a supportive and collaborative environment. 8. Adaptability: The healthcare environment is constantly evolving. PTs and OTs must be adaptable, staying current with the latest research, techniques, and technologies, and being willing to adjust their practices to meet changing patient needs. At Medicruit, we understand the importance of these skills in delivering exceptional patient care. We strive to match healthcare facilities with PTs and OTs who embody these qualities, ensuring successful placements and improved patient outcomes. If you’re a PT or OT looking to advance your career or a healthcare facility seeking top talent, reach out to us. Together, we can build a healthier future! #HealthcareRecruitment #PhysicalTherapy #OccupationalTherapy #TopSkills #Medicruit

How to dispel hiring manager fear as a therapist. I’m sure many of us have all been in this similar situation. The hiring manager is an RN or worse they are not clinical at all! As a therapist PT/OT/SLP etc we have very niche skills and a unique role we play in healthcare. Our uniqueness can be our down fall or our saving grace. When the hiring manager sees we are not like them the fear starts to creep in. Can this person handle the job? Do they even have any relatable skills? I don’t really know what they actually do? This makes me uncomfortable I’ll just move to the next candidate. So how can we as therapists combat this? 1. Don’t use discipline specific jargon instead use role specific jargon and speak their language don’t try and make them understand yours. 2. Talk about your experiences as a therapist and make sure to draw linear comparisons to the specific role you’ve applied for. If you bring up patient assessments that needs to be tied to selecting appropriate process measures. If you talk about goal setting this can be tied to meeting benchmarks for projects or quality measures. Getting the idea? Good. 3. Don’t act like you know it when you don’t. Let’s face it we are “experts” in our respective fields and sometimes carry that mentality into interviews for roles we truly know little about. It’s important to take a step back, ask genuine questions and do not attempt to overcompensate for lack of non-clinical experience. If you’re looking for a role change. Get out there and take a chance! #cliniciantransition #nonclinical #therapist #physicaltherapist #homehealth #healthcarequality #clinicalinnovation #healthtech #healthcareleadership #nursing #HealthcareReform #PT #OT #SLP #CareerPathways #InnovateHealthcare #considertherapists

This is a serious warning for all OT, PT, and SLP therapists on my feed! As a fellow therapist, I must strongly advise against working for the contract therapy company - Step Up Rehab. I had the unfortunate experience of being under their direct leadership at Solaris Health Lake Zephyr in August of 2023. Step Up Rehab imposes and STRICTLY enforces unattainable productivity requirements on their therapy assistants, exceeding 90%, in the skilled nursing facility setting. The upper management of this company sets productivity requirements to unattainable levels, knowingly forcing therapists to hold group and concurrent treatments to cut costs, disregarding the clinical judgment of therapists and the patients individual needs. This not only harms our vulnerable patients and seniors but also creates an environment of intimidation, bullying and abuse. After six years in the industry, I’ve worked in nursing homes/SNFs across Florida and New Jersey and I have ONLY encountered what I can confidently deem as "unethical" contract therapy companies and therapy management firms. Their upper management teams have developed and implemented a productivity scheme deliberately designed to exploit therapists and deprive patients of quality treatments to cut costs. Given these unethical practices, I am compelled to share my resignation letter in my next post with the building administrator who was utilizing Step Up Rehab as a vendor or contract therapy company. Stay tuned for updates. Join our grassroots movement today: USA Based OT, PT, and SLP Therapists United For Change. We are 3,500 therapists united in the fight against exposing the productivity scheme of contract therapy companies and therapy management firms in the nursing home industry.
