About the Role

VMCH is seeking a Physiotherapist to provide allied health support to clients within the Hume Region of Victoria. The successful candidate will be based in Wangaratta or Shepparton and travel around the region as required.

The Physiotherapist will adopt an approach to working with clients that is goal-oriented and focused on wellness, reablement, and capacity building. This involves working with clients and their support networks to maximise their independence and quality of life.

The key responsibilities of the role include:

  • Providing therapy supports in the clients' chosen environment, including their homes and/or specialist accommodation.

This is a wonderful opportunity for a recent Physiotherapist graduate who is looking to kick-start their career within the Allied Health space.

Requirements

  • Tertiary qualification in Occupational Therapy and/or Physiotherapy with current AHPRA registration.
  • Sound theoretical and demonstrated knowledge of a broad range of complex conditions that may impact people with a disability, the aged, and their carers.
  • Knowledge and skill in the assessment, implementation, and evaluation of therapeutic plans and services for the elderly.
