Pros
I really can't think of any .
Cons
Physical therapists see patients for evaluations and recerts only. PTAs treat patients for the entire reporting period while the PTs are expected to sign off on progress notes and discharge summaries written by PTAs. PTs are expected to go to other buildings or see patients at home to get their hours. The company is doing away with PRNS to save money and using staff PTs for coverage. This means working every other weekend and just about every holiday including Thanksgiving and Christmas. No raise in 5 years even though company continues to buy out other companies and show increased profits on the financials. Good luck using your vacation days,especially in the summer and around holidays. Pressure to get high minutes on all patients and to pick up med Bs regardless of skilled need.
