As an Exercise Physiologist, you will be required to design, deliver and evaluate safe and effective exercise interventions for people with acute, sub-acute or chronic medical conditions, injuries or disabilities. Pathology domains covered by these services will include cardiovascular, metabolic, neurological, musculoskeletal, cancers, kidney, respiratory / pulmonary, mental health, and any other conditions for which there is evidence that exercise can improve the client’s clinical status. You will be required to work independently and also be willing to liaise with the Allied Health team in delivering exercise programs for clients within a variety of demographics.

‍

Being a mobile service, you will be required to travel to clients homes and community locales around Tamworth and it's surrounds. Due to the extra time that is allocated for travel, this means that you would rarely be seeing more then seven patients on a regular work day. You will also have access to the new Compass Neurological gym to run in clinic sessions. You have the freedom to inform admin as to the structure of your schedule and work hours, in alignment with the business’ goals.

The caseload will be a mixture of Private, NDIS, Lifetime Care, Workers Comp/CTP, My Aged Care and CDM. The majority of the caseload can be tailored to fit your skills and interests, however, an EP who is confident in working with paediatric and neurological clients is desirable.

‍

A two-week paid on-boarding/training process will be provided, wherein you will spend time with the practice manager learning the business' software and systems, and attend joint appointments with the senior therapist as well as independently seeing a small caseload of clients in the second week.
