Specialty care areas include cardiology pulmonology oncology ortho neuro infectious disease endocrinology (kidney transplants) rheumatology and intensive/critical care. I would prefer someone with NICU experience so they can treat those babies for us 1xper week. Therapist will also be doing some wound care per physician orders (typically abscesses and some minor burns). We use DAR documentation (Data Action Response) instead of SOAPE notes - this requires some training. Outpatient care will be primarily for but not limited to acute care orthopedics including evaluations and treatments for sportsmed CP Developmental delay post fracture musculoskeletal pain wound care toe walking muscle weakness; however there may be some chronic CP treatments that need to be performed (NDT training preferred). Outpatients are typically seen for 1 hour appointments. At this late date of a person arriving we will lack the time to truly train them to our paperwork protocols. So the traveler will probably be assigned for outpatient care and to assist in NICU 1 x per week if they have NICU experience.
