Pros

I love the team of PT's, Rehab. aides, and office coordinator that I work with. It really is a team atmosphere in the clinic and the team I've been able to work with is great. I get to interact with lots of patients throughout the day and have built some great connections with patients that I have worked with. It truly is a relational job and the best rehab aides are the ones who can effectively help the patient and make strong connections with the patient during their time in the clinic. I also love the variety of my responsibilities, like cleaning the clinic, answering calls, helping a patients with exercises and stretches, setting up modalities, Once you get the hang of it, the job can be very fast-paced and fun when you're balancing all those responsibilities at once. This can make shifts fly by and especially be fun if you're a people person like me and enjoying talking with your patients and coworkers.

Cons

A lot is asked of the rehab aides, and the training for the position isn't super formal. While I eventually learned and was able to adapt to the job, I struggled at first because I wanted to do a good job but felt unprepared and overwhelmed. Learning how to balance all of my in-clinic responsibilities took time, and it can be really hectic (depending on how busy the clinic) as a rehab aide so be prepared to learn on the fly and be able to juggle several different tasks. The PT's really lean on the rehab aides to help with their patient treatment, so I personally think the pay could be higher because of the amount of work we do and the integral role aides play in the success of the clinic
