Job Overview
Our client in Mumbai requires a Physiotherapist for orthopaedic and mobility rehabilitation. The role is suited to a clinician who can assess pain, strength, posture, range of motion, balance, gait, and functional limitations, then create practical treatment plans that help patients return to daily activity safely.
Detailed Job Description
The physiotherapist will manage patients recovering from fractures, ligament injuries, joint replacements, spine-related pain, shoulder conditions, knee pain, sports injuries, and post-operative mobility limitations. Responsibilities include physical assessment, goal-setting, exercise prescription, manual therapy where appropriate, gait training, strengthening programmes, pain-management education, ergonomic advice, and home-exercise planning. The therapist must record treatment plans, progress notes, outcome measures, patient attendance, and any red flags that require medical review.
The role requires clear patient motivation and realistic counselling. Many patients may be anxious about pain, delayed recovery, or return to work, so the physiotherapist must explain treatment progress in a structured and reassuring manner. The therapist will coordinate with orthopaedic surgeons, general physicians, nurses, occupational therapists, and administrative staff when referrals, reports, or follow-up appointments are needed. The candidate should maintain equipment hygiene, patient privacy, safe exercise supervision, and professional conduct during one-to-one and group sessions.
Candidate Profile
The ideal candidate is patient-focused, physically active enough to demonstrate exercises safely, and confident in documenting measurable progress. The candidate should be able to manage both short-term pain cases and longer rehabilitation plans. Final salary, work timings, and caseload allocation will depend on employer interview and experience level.
Licensing / Registration Notes
Candidates should provide degree certificates, internship completion details where applicable, identity proof, and professional experience records. State or institutional registration requirements will be verified according to employer policy.
