Physical Therapist and Physical Therapy Assistant
New grads invited to apply.
Prevail Physical Therapy in Shoreline is looking for two, full-time clinicians with energy and passion who are interested in learning and helping others. The name “Prevail” was inspired by the countless people from sedentary to Olympians that we have witnessed overcoming their unique challenges, and the honor we take in serving them. If it is time for you to level-up your skills or add a specialty to your clinical toolkit in a great team environment, read on.
Prevail was founded and is currently managed under the vision of Bruk Ballenger, DPT, who also previously co-founded Real Rehab Physical Therapy and R2 Bicycles Fitting Studio. The Prevail philosophy is rooted in team development, service innovation, community involvement and healthy business practices. We serve our local community as an outpatient orthopedic clinic, specializing in the health and performance of athletes and active people. We emphasize specialty skills and services not only to provide better care, but also for clinician growth.
Part of the mission of Prevail is to continually educate our clinicians. Time is given to clinicians for two group in-services per month, 1:1 cross education between any clinicians, and 1:1 and group training in the specialty services that we provide if desired.
We do utilize one Physical Therapy Assistant as appropriate, but we do not use PT Aides for patient care. All visits are 45 minutes with a 1:1 PT-to-patient ratio. We commonly “share” patients among clinicians to better serve our patients with in-house referrals to take advantage of the specialty skills of different clinicians.
Your work schedule is developed as a a collaborative effort with you and the clinician supervisor to accommodate your preferences and the team's availability. We allow "flex time" to preserve your paid time off (PTO) while giving you extra days off.
Specialty services:
· We are proponents of manual therapy but emphasize movement retraining, strength, and conditioning, with our 2,000+ square feet of open gym space plus a small private gym room.
· Running/walking:
o Gait Analysis: Through thousands of analyses, we have developed a unique and thorough biomechanical gait analysis process designed to illuminate clinician and patient understanding of functional movement issues and strategies to address them. Analysis includes gait specific exam, video analysis, pedobarography and surface EMG.
o Orthotics: we prescribe custom orthotics when appropriate and carry Superfeet for OTC use. We have a mini-orthotic lab to allow on-site adjustments, refurbishing, etc.
o We have one of the few, publicly available AlterG Antigravity treadmills in the state and use for accelerated post-op rehab, continued run training while injured, and performance enhancement
· Bike Fitting: Our approach to bike fitting is based on the cyclist’s biomechanics, involving clinical exam, motion analysis, pressure mapping as appropriate, and changes to bike positioning. We have multiple methods of bike fitting including the Guru DFU computerized fitting bike, Computrainer pedaling analysis, BikeFit Stem Sizer and SwitchIt saddle changer. An extensive selection of parts is available on-site for immediate changes, and staff receive an employee discount on any bikes or parts from our wholesaler relationships.
· Pelvic Health: The importance of the pelvis et al cannot be overstated for both orthopedics and pelvic floor related issues. We have two pelvic health specialists currently on staff and have an immediate need for others who have experience with pelvic health or are interested in specializing in this area.
Medical and dental insurance, minimum of two weeks paid time off, $1,000 per year Con Ed, and an annual full subscription to MedBridge are included.
