About the Opportunity
You'll be a part of a professional private practice providing mobile outpatient services to older adults. This is not a home health company, though we do treat clients in their homes.

As a valued Kind clinician, you will work per diem and make your own schedule, and plans of care often last 2-3 months, providing scheduling security and great relationships with clients.
About You
You believe, like we do, that kindness, compassion, and genuine connection create great therapeutic relationships. You have a great enthusiasm for helping seniors improve their quality of life, and you have the drive to respond to their challenges with creativity - you believe every issue has a solution and it is our job to help older adults achieve what they and their loved ones didn’t think was possible. You are a trusted colleague with great communication skills and integrity. You thrive in autonomous settings, and are able to independently achieve expectations for scheduling and managing your caseload. You have been told by your clients that you go above and beyond, because unlike many others, you believe in their capacity to get stronger and live better lives. You are a happy, excited clinician who wants to make a difference.

At Kind Rehabilitation, we believe that aging adults deserve exceptional care that empowers them to live as independently as possible. Our evidence-based and experience-tested physical and occupational therapy services provide older adults with compassion, patience and training to function optimally in their homes. We don’t go easy on our clients, because we know Kind clients can achieve great things.
Achieving Together:
In our experience, the seniors we serve have been treated with a lack of confidence in their abilities. Our clients often report that many heath professionals believe they are no longer capable of, or even deserving of, true wellness. We believe all older adults can improve their health, reduce their risk of falls, and live fuller lives. All our treatments are collaborative - we are the experts on improving your health, but you are the expert on you.
We’re on Your Team:
Our clients have a wide array of diagnoses that range from neurological conditions such as Parkinson’s disease and dementia, to orthopedic concerns like fractures, joint replacements or degeneration. We treat people with cardiovascular and pulmonary diagnoses such as chronic heart disease and COPD. We also address chronic and acute pain. These conditions all call for very specific treatment plans, and our clients all have their own highly personal goals. A Kind treatment plan honors these very specific goals. Together, we can reduce the risk of falls, improve muscle strength, restore balance, increase endurance, decrease pain, and improve functioning in everyday activities.
How it Works:
Because we are Medicare Part B providers, we operate on an outpatient-style treatment plan, which allows for flexibility in frequency and duration of therapy services. We bring your appointments to your home at a time of day that best suits your schedule. Our appointments are always one-on-one.
Kind Rehabilitation is not a home health agency so there is no home-bound requirement for eligibility. Traditional medicare and supplemental plans, Kaiser Medicare Advantage, and private pay are all accepted. We tailor our services to the individual, and we have complete confidence in them to work their way toward their optimal life.
