Physical Therapist - Full-Time

Location: Grantsville, WV, 26147

Minnie Hamilton Health System, an award-winning rural hospital, clinic, dental, and long-term care facility located in central West Virginia, is seeking a full-time Physical Therapist for our busy Grantsville location. The ideal candidate will provide high-quality care to patients in both a hospital setting and a long-term care center, helping them achieve optimal physical function and improve their quality of life. We have the nicest patients and the sweetest residents at our long-term facility (really, we do!).

We appreciate our traveling contractors, but this time, we're looking for someone who wants to stay and grow with us—a Keeper!

Our Physical Therapy department is already great, but we're renovating our entire hospital, and the PT Center will soon be brand new with a new location and new equipment!

Need more reasons to join us? If you love the outdoors, West Virginia offers many lakes, rivers, hiking trails, and the newest National Park. Our county features one of the few "Dark Sky" areas for star gazers and photographers, and there's much more to explore.
