Powerback - Contract - Cedar Ridge Skowhegan -R10A75
Mid Level
Embark on a meaningful journey as a Physical Therapist in Maine, anchored in Skowhegan, with a multi-week assignment starting on 11/24/2025. This is more than a contract—it’s your opportunity to apply evidence-based rehabilitation, elevate patient outcomes, and advance within a dynamic, supportive network. In this role, you’ll guide patients through tailored therapies that restore function, reduce pain, and empower independence, weaving clinical expertise with compassionate care to help individuals reclaim daily activities and confidence after injury or illness. Your hands-on expertise, clinical reasoning, and collaborative spirit will drive meaningful progress, while you immerse yourself in a community that values quality care and personal growth. And while you’re focused on helping others, you’ll also have the chance to savor the beauty of Maine—where coastal vistas, rolling hills, and vibrant small towns create a backdrop that inspires balance, resilience, and well-being.

Location Benefits: Skowhegan, Maine, offers a welcoming, close-knit community with a robust healthcare network and access to outdoor recreation, historic sites, and regional arts. Working in this setting means meaningful patient interactions within a residential community that appreciates dedication and continuity of care. You’ll enjoy a stable base in Skowhegan, with the exciting possibility to broaden your horizons through future assignments at other sites across the United States, expanding your clinical exposure and professional network. The role combines the comfort of a home base with the opportunity to explore diverse practice environments, from urban clinics to rural hospitals, all while receiving comprehensive support to make transitions seamless. In Maine, you’ll experience a reasonable cost of living, engaging public services, and a pace that supports thoughtful, thorough treatment planning—creating the ideal environment for skill refinement and patient-centered outcomes. The position also highlights a weekly pay range of $2,397-$2,520 and guaranteed hours, ensuring financial clarity as you plan your weeks. And if you’re drawn to weekend escapes, Maine’s seasonality offers activities that align with your downtime—hiking, kayaking, leaf-peeping, or coastal day trips when you’re off duty.

Role Specifics and Benefits: In this Physical Therapist role, you’ll assess patients’ mobility and function, design individualized rehabilitation plans, implement evidence-based interventions (orthopedic, neuromuscular, and general gait training), and monitor progress toward measurable goals. You’ll document outcomes, adjust plans in collaboration with physicians and therapists, and advocate for patient education that promotes long-term functional independence. The position emphasizes professional growth within physical therapy, with opportunities to expand your skill set across specialties, settings, and patient populations. You’ll receive a competitive compensation package, including a sign-on bonus and housing assistance to ease relocation or temporary housing needs. The contract offers extension opportunities, allowing you to continue contributing to patient outcomes while deepening your expertise. A standout feature is 24/7 support from a dedicated travel team—round-the-clock assistance for scheduling, resources, and problem-solving as you travel between assignments. You’ll have guaranteed 36.0 hours per week, with weekly pay between $2,397 and $2,520, ensuring consistent earnings as you build your career. The role provides robust administrative and clinical support, access to continuing education resources, and a culture that values collaboration, innovation, and patient-first care.

Company Values: Our organization is built on empowering staff to reach their full potential. We invest in your career development, offering mentoring, ongoing education, and clear pathways for advancement within physical therapy and related disciplines. A supportive, inclusive environment welcomes new ideas and encourages open communication, teamwork, and shared accountability for outcomes.

This is your chance to join a company that prioritizes your development, offers enhanced benefits, and provides a structured, supportive framework for travel-based PT excellence.
