About this role

Physical Therapist (FEE BASIS) Johnson City, Tennessee Summary This is a Fee Basis Provider position. Fee basis appointments are temporary, excepted appointments of persons in professional and technical occupations under authority of Title 38 of the United States Code, specifically section 7405(a)(2). Fee basis appointments provide services on a facility's premises when health services are otherwise readily available, cost effective, based on services provided rather than on an hour or tour basis, and when determined to be cost effective to the agency. Duties The Physical Therapist has the direct responsibility for physical therapy services in acute care, outpatient, and Community Living Center (CLC) as assigned. In addition, the PT is also expected to provide patient care duties and develop and participate in specialized treatment programs. The PT will provide these services to patients with a wide variety of multiple, complex illnesses and/or profound disabilities. Major Duties: The PT independently completes a review/examination of patient data (including medical history) to develop a plan of care, assess patient's status, and ascertain patient's need for therapy services. Interviews patients and caregivers to gather information for ongoing patient assessment. Assesses goals, living skills, physical abilities, and related needs for each patient referred. Evaluations include medical history, examination, results and interpretation of appropriate functional tests and measurements such as: range of motion, muscle testing, sensory/perceptual deficits, coordination, functional mobility, pain scales, appropriate self-report and performance-based outcome measures, and social/contextual factors/needs. Tests are frequently complex and may need to be adapted because of multiple physical disabilities
