This multi-week assignment places you at the heart of a dedicated clinical team, focused on delivering evidence-based therapy that accelerates recovery across a spectrum of conditions—from postoperative rehab and musculoskeletal strains to neurological and vestibular challenges. As you apply precise assessments, tailor individualized treatment plans, and guide patients through manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, and gait training, you’ll witness firsthand the transformative impact of skilled physical therapy. Beyond the clinic, the opportunity to live and work in Maine invites you to explore the state’s natural beauty—lush river valleys, rolling farmland, rugged coastline, and vibrant seasons that invite outdoor exploration. Waterville blends a welcoming small-town atmosphere with cultural amenities, colleges, and thriving local eateries, creating an environment where professional focus and personal well-being can thrive side by side.

Location benefits extend beyond Waterville to the wider Maine landscape and the broader United States travel network.

In this Physical Therapist role, you’ll own a comprehensive set of responsibilities designed to broaden your professional scope and deepen your clinical impact. You’ll conduct thorough evaluations and reassessments, interpret objective measures to refine treatment plans, and implement evidenced-based interventions including manual therapy, therapeutic exercise progression, neurodevelopmental approaches where appropriate, gait and balance retraining, and modalities that support healing and pain reduction. You’ll document patient progress accurately, communicate clearly with physicians, nurses, and family members, and contribute to discharge planning to ensure sustained function after you depart. The assignment emphasizes professional growth within the physical therapy specialty, offering exposure to diverse caseloads, opportunities to mentor junior staff, and collaboration with dynamic multidisciplinary teams.
