At CommonSpirit Mountain Region, we believe in the healing power of humanity and serving the common good through our dedicated work and shared mission to celebrate humankindness.

The Inpatient Rehabilitation department at St. Francis Hospital, Capron Neuro and Trauma Rehabilitation is an acute inpatient rehab facility with 27 beds which is part of Penrose-St Francis Hospital system. We care for patients who suffer from strokes, brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, traumas, neurological diseases, spinal surgeries and amputations. We receive admissions from Penrose and St Francis primarily and do not have overflow. Our mission is to support patients and their families in physical and emotional healing to gain maximum functional independence.

Our goal is to support patients on their journey to be as independent as possible. Our average length of stay for patients is two weeks which allows time to connect with patients and provide them with education that includes teaching of new skills and providing support as they adjust to their ‘new normal’. Our interdisciplinary team is the heart of our unit and is integral in helping patients reach their maximum rehab potential.

This role offers some flexibility for a full-time role (4x10-hour days or 5x8-hour days). We are seeking a motivated and compassionate Physical Therapist to join our strong, collaborative team. This position offers a diverse caseload and the opportunity to work closely with on-site orthopedic surgeons and primary care referring physicians. We have an experienced staff eager to train and mentor, making this an ideal opportunity for a new graduate looking for a supportive environment or an experienced PT seeking a dynamic setting.  We are able to train a new grad for this outpatient opening.
