ABOUT THRIVE THERAPIES

Thrive Therapies Group is a pediatric healthcare organization on a mission to revolutionize the care of children with disabilities and those facing barriers to access. We provide results-driven services and intelligent tools to support children’s development, well-being, and health. At the heart of this mission are the people who change the trajectories of children’s lives. We work for them.

We work exclusively in K–12 schools — because school is where clinical care becomes transformative. Roughly half of all children identified with a disability receive their services in schools, not in healthcare settings. For many of those children, the school-based clinician is the care. Thrive is built around that reality.

We work exclusively with historically under-resourced, neurodiverse K–12 communities. Equity isn’t a tagline — it’s the core of why we exist. Our school partners request Thrive by name because they want better outcomes for students with disabilities.

WHAT MAKES THRIVE THERAPIES DIFFERENT

OUR MISSION

There are organizations that place clinicians in schools. Thrive is something different. We are a pediatric healthcare organization built around a singular belief: that school is where clinical care becomes transformative — that a therapy goal in a clinic is a therapy goal, but a therapy goal in a school becomes a friendship on the playground, a kid who feels they belong, a child who gets to participate in the full arc of childhood. Everything we build — our technology, our workload model, our clinical community — exists to protect that work and the clinicians who deliver it.

THE WORKLOAD MODEL

Thrive uses a workload model that accounts for the full scope of PT work — evaluations, adaptive equipment, direct service, and documentation — and sizes your assignment to be sustainable for the long haul.

THE TECHNOLOGY

Our AI-powered tools were built by clinicians who were tired of losing evenings to documentation. They handle evaluation report generation, session notes, paperwork, and progress summaries — and they give our clinicians 10+ hours back every week. The tools are continuously improved based on clinician feedback. They belong to you as much as anyone.

THE CLINICAL COMMUNITY

You have a community here and are never alone. You have clinical supervision through a role-alike leader, quarterly professional development, monthly role-alike communities of practice, and peers across the organization you can reach every day.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

As a Thrive PT in the Durham, NC region, you will deliver school-based physical therapy services to students K–12 whose disabilities affect their ability to access and navigate the educational environment. Working within the educational model, you will evaluate gross motor function, recommend adaptive equipment, write IEP goals, and collaborate with interdisciplinary school teams. You are a full member of the community.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

EVALUATION & ELIGIBILITY

Conduct comprehensive PT evaluations to determine educational need and IDEA eligibility, including assessment of gross motor skills, functional mobility, gait, balance, coordination, and physical access to the school environment
Administer and interpret standardized assessment tools (GMFM, BOTMP, PDMS-2, and others) as appropriate to the referral
Write evaluation reports that are clinically rigorous, educationally framed, and accessible to IEP team members and families
Participate in eligibility determination meetings and translate PT findings for educational planning purposes
Conduct re-evaluations (triennials) in accordance with IDEA timelines

IEP DEVELOPMENT & SERVICE DELIVERY

Develop individualized PT IEP goals targeting functional mobility, gross motor skill development, and physical participation in educational activities
Deliver direct individual therapy sessions using evidence-based PT approaches including NDT, motor learning principles, gait training, and strengthening programs
Evaluate for and recommend adaptive equipment — including wheelchairs, walkers, orthotics, and positioning devices — and train students, staff, and families in their proper use
Provide consultative services to teachers and paraprofessionals on physical access accommodations and safe transfer and mobility support techniques
Maintain accurate, timely service logs and progress notes — supported by Thrive’s AI documentation tools

COLLABORATION & ENVIRONMENTAL ACCESS

Partner with OTs, SLPs, BCBAs, school psychologists, and special education teachers on integrated, student-centered IEP teams
Collaborate with school facilities and administration on accessibility modifications when indicated by student need
Train teachers, paraprofessionals, and families on safe handling, mobility support, and transfer techniques
Coordinate with occupational therapists on overlapping motor, positioning, and adaptive equipment goals
Contribute to RTI/MTSS by providing universal gross motor screening and physical access consultation
