Travel Outpatient Physical Therapist - $2,160 per week
Ardor Health Solutions is seeking a Physical Therapist for a 13-week travel assignment with a private outpatient clinic in Phoenix, Arizona.
About the Role
- 13-week travel assignment
- Full-time schedule (40 hours per week)
- 8-hour day shifts
- 1:1 patient-care model in a private outpatient orthopedic clinic
- Primarily orthopedic and musculoskeletal caseload
- Individualized treatment approach with more direct therapist-to-patient interaction
- Opportunity to focus on quality of care rather than high-volume scheduling
This position is ideal for a Physical Therapist who enjoys outpatient orthopedics but prefers a 1:1 care model over a high-volume environment.
Why the 1:1 Care Model Matters
A 1:1 treatment model allows the therapist to spend dedicated time with each patient rather than moving between multiple patients or relying heavily on support staff. Benefits include:
- More individualized treatment sessions
- More time for hands-on treatment and patient education
- Better opportunity to assess progress and modify treatment
- Stronger therapist-patient relationships
- Less of the "patient mill" feel associated with some high-volume outpatient clinics
- A more clinically focused outpatient experience
