Are you a Physical Therapist that would like a school setting?

I took a job order this afternoon from a school near Charlotte, NC.  They are looking for a full time Physical Therapist to join their team by mid September.  There should be enough time to obtain NC licensure, and my company would reimburse you for the cost of that license.

This is a 37.5 hour work week, and is a district-wide position with a caseload of 40-50 children, ages preK-12.  They prefer someone with a schools experience, but will consider others, especially those with some pediatric experience.

Call me at 866-874-7390 if you have any interest or pass me along if you know someone who might have an interest.

Pupil Services, not therapists...

How about a listing for those of you who are outside my normal pleas for Occupational, Physical and Speech Therapists? There's a definite need for you who work exclusively with the visually impaired, deaf and hard of hearing, and other special needs children.  If you'd like information about working as a "traveler" as many of our healthcare professionals do, please read through my January, 2011 post.  These are all full time school schedules starting as soon as you can show up!  Here you go!

It's getting down to the wire for most school systems, which (for anyone still looking for a placement) is good news!  This time of the school year is much busier than it was just a month ago.  Unfortunately for the schools, caseloads increase and people drop off at the last minute.  The special ed directors are frantically calling all their contract services to see who is still left.  For those of you who are patient (or maybe just more of a last minute-type person) this puts you in center stage!!  We recruiters know that some of you are aware of this waltz that we dance with schools every year and have waited for this "sweet spot" to nab that perfect position in the area that just wasn't available even 2 weeks ago.  Below are a few of the requests we've had recently and some that have been around awhile.  Call me, and I'll do my best to get you an interview and a locked-in contract for the 2013-2014 school year!  866-874-7390.
