Most Outpatient Physical Therapy clinics are looking for 1 PT to add to their team. But that 1 PT, has endless options. So how do you stand out amongst your competition? Pay, benefits, patient volume, schedule, con ed / mentorship, company culture etc. are all on the table. However, I can tell you one thing that is certain… your organization can’t afford to be at the bottom of each category. Because in this candidate driven market, all it takes is for 1 other company to exceed what you have to offer. Plus, if there is a large discrepancy in the pay, pride can take over, deterring candidates OR even worse, those candidates continue to get hit up by recruiters and end up taking something that pays more after a short stint with your organization. Understanding the current market is key when looking to add new members to your team, which is exactly where we start when taking on a new search. Then, we build a plan of attack, discuss flexibility points and communicate what the market is saying back. Successful hiring not only takes a team effort, it also requires market insight and knowledge to edge out your competition.

As a fellow clinician and clinician supporter, I'm always on the lookout for resources that will help you in your career journey. I recently joined as a founding member to a community called Humans in Healthcare, led by Amy Story and I'm sharing with you because you should consider joining too! Humans in Healthcare is a unique and growing community of diverse clinicians who are using their gifts, talents, and abilities to be the change we want to see. Humans in Healthcare is a space for clinicians to find community, creativity, and humanity. Here, you are more than a credential --- you are a human who is allowed to grow, change, and evolve. The collective lived experience in this space is rare. You'll find seasoned clinical tech leaders, policy and program experts, product-minded builders, solo or entrepreneurs, and front-line clinicians and SMEs who are taking their knowledge and experience to the next level -- all within the same space ready and willing to help, support, and care for one another. We have regular office hours and discussion topics around careers, leadership, and the unique challenges of clinician creators, a growing career and leadership-centric resource library, and dedicated space for networking and peer support, and a private job board for nonclinical roles hiring clinicians. The shared humanity and compassion are magic. The collective lived experience is rare. The heart of healthcare is human. We are bringing humanity back to healthcare. https://lnkd.in/e7z6nkjK (Link is affiliate)

The Biggest Threats to Outpatient Physical Therapy Clinics 🏥 - changes in government reimbursement for services and/or new payment policies may result in a reduction in revenue, an increase in costs, and a reduction in profitability - adverse economic conditions, including an inflationary environment, could cause a continuation in increases in the price of labor and other operating expenses - shortages in available qualified PTs/PTAs, and/or the ability to attract/retain therapists could limit the ability to staff facilities - shortages in qualified PTs/PTAs could cause an increase in dependence on contract labor, increase efforts in recruiting/train new employees, and expand initiatives to retain existing staff, which could increase operating costs - public threats such as a global pandemic, or widespread outbreak of an infectious disease, could negatively impact patient volume, revenues, increase labor/operating costs, disrupt global financial markets, and/or further legislative/regulatory actions which impact healthcare providers as well as Medicare/medicaid programs - government investigations or assertion that a regulation violation took place may result in sanctions, reputation harms, and increased costs - acquisitions or joint ventures may prove difficult or unsuccessful, use significant resources, and/or exposure to unforeseen liabilities - third party payors may adopt payment policies that could limit future revenue/profitability - failure to maintain established relationships with physicians in served areas could reduce revenue/profitability - competition could limit the ability to grow and result in a decrease in revenue/profitability - the loss of key members of the management team could significantly disrupt business operations - a security breach of IT/EMR systems may subject a business to potential legal/reputational harm Did I miss anything?

DON'T become a doctor. That's what 20+ physicians told me when I worked in the hospital.🏥 I asked them, "If you could go back and do it again, would you still become a doctor?" The answer was overwhelmingly "NO." 😲 Their reasons? 👉🏼 Lack of autonomy 👉🏼 Stressed and unhealthy 👉🏼 Frustrated at the system 👉🏼 Single without time to date 👉🏼 Overworked and under paid 👉🏼 Divorced twice after 10 years 👉🏼 Missed out on a decade of life 👉🏼 Not enough time with their kids ...............And the list went on................ So I had to reassess. What should I do with my career? 🤔 ___________ This is what happens to THOUSANDS of prospective doctors each year. They see the dissatisfaction They hear doctors' honest opinion And look elsewhere to establish a career. No wonder we're short on physicians! ________________ As for me, Although it's frustrating at times, I LOVE healthcare. I also love data and process improvement. Now I support healthcare leaders all over the US, providing analytics and Epic support to make their lives easier. ❤️ ___________________ Non-Clinicians in healthcare: ➡ How did you get here? Physicians: ➡ Would you do it again? #healthcare #data #Epic #LeanHealthTech #physician

That’s one side of the mirror. In fact when I became a doctor I had plenty of time to speak and TALK with my patients And a few hours to burocratic work. Nowadays we have plenty of time in computers trying to assess digital plataforms to fill, in order to “serve” a huge hierarquy of informatics and administrators. And the time to speak, talk and empathise with patients, be came shorter and shorter. That’ s a way of practice medicine that is no more actrative and is perhaps a pervasive form of practicing medicine. Doctors are humanistic scientists, not burocratic performers. That is why many of them gabe and give up actually. In adition they wont be autonomous and not beeing manipulated by patients and administrations.

🙌 As we build bridges between healthcare professionals, providers and the industry for the Peerr network more opportunities like this will become available! ✨ This is an opportunity for senior medical doctors to start to experience what in essence is 'consulting' - the practice of sharing expert insight and experience. It is these surveys that then turn into longer term work, add variation to lifestyle and can lead to a different income stream - which may be quite fun to you all. Peerr will be your bridge. If you've got outpatient experience head over to www.peerr.io and have a look at what Avegen Health are looking for. 🚀 Otherwise follow Peerr, where we are building the dedicated health and life sciences network. Ps. Look out also for the new handful of jobs and other opportunities about to be pushed onto Peerr. #Network #HealthAndLifeSciences #Opportunities

Having worked in the medical field for more than six years in various states, I will be sharing posts related to how most of my clients suffer from stunted business growth or mental pressure, apart from their actual fieldwork. I'll be sharing one issue daily with a solution to help get them on the right track toward success. #medical #md #houston #problems #solutions

Why only Doctor? Every Role Makes a Difference: Exploring the Spectrum of Medical Careers! As someone who works in #CancerCare in India, I see a crucial gap: the lack of awareness about the incredible spectrum of healthcare careers. I have seen that, more often than not, when it comes to medical careers, most of our attention is focused on doctors! Don't get me wrong, #doctors are amazing and crucial to our healthcare system. But what about the pharmacists formulating life-saving drugs? The researchers tirelessly seeking cures? The nurses providing constant care? They're the backbone of #healthcare. Even social scientists and AI are changing the game! Their research on accessibility helps ensure no one falls through the cracks. 👉If you are someone who dreams of making a healthcare impact but thinks "doctor" is the only path, think again! There are 100+ ways your passion can contribute to healthcare! Let's break the mold and celebrate the full spectrum of medical and healthcare heroes!  #Careers #HealthTech #MedicalProfessionals #Doctors #YouBelong #Diverse #FutureOfHealthcare
