Nursing Vault Plus Staffing is proud to partner with a premier healthcare provider opening a brand-new, state-of-the-art facility in McHenry, IL. We are looking for a dedicated Physical Therapist to join an exclusive start-up team.
This is a rare opportunity to be part of a "Founding Team," helping to establish the clinical culture and operational excellence of a new building from day one. If you are a self-motivated clinician who thrives in a dynamic, growth-oriented environment, this is your next career move.
Clinical Excellence: Lead patient evaluations and provide high-quality, evidence-based treatments for an outpatient orthopedic population.
Start-Up Collaboration: Work closely with the initial leadership team to streamline workflows and optimize the patient experience in the new building.
Care Coordination: Manage a Monday–Friday caseload with an emphasis on manual therapy, functional movement, and long-term wellness.
Documentation: Maintain precise and timely electronic medical records (EMR) in compliance with state and federal regulations.
License: Active Illinois Physical Therapist (PT) License in good standing.
Education: Graduate of an APTA-accredited Physical Therapy program (DPT preferred).
Experience: Previous experience in an outpatient setting is preferred; however, we are looking for "start-up" personalities—adaptable, proactive, and collaborative.
Skills: Proficiency in manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, and patient education.
Ready to join the founding team in McHenry? Apply today through Nursing Vault Plus Staffing to secure your interview for this high-demand position.
Top-Tier Hourly Pay: At up to $50/hr, this rate is at the high end of the market for outpatient orthopedics in the McHenry area, where the average often ranges between $40–$46/hr for staff positions.
The "Work-Life" Schedule: A strict Monday–Friday schedule is a major selling point in healthcare. Most PTs are used to rotating Saturdays or late evening shifts; this client offers the rare luxury of consistent weekends off.
Influence & Ownership: As part of the start-up team, the PT isn't just following rules—they are writing them. They get to help design the workflow, choose preferred equipment, and set the clinical "vibe" of the office.
Fast-Track Leadership: Joining a new facility at launch often leads to rapid promotion into Clinical Director or Lead Therapist roles as the building reaches capacity and more staff are hired.
Pristine Workspace: Working in a brand-new building means no outdated equipment or cramped "legacy" floor plans. It’s an environment that reflects the quality of care they provide.
Tech-Forward: New facilities typically launch with the latest EMR (Electronic Medical Record) systems and modern modalities, reducing documentation burnout.
Building a Legacy: The therapist will be the "face" of the facility in McHenry. They will have the opportunity to build long-standing relationships with local physicians and patients from day one.
Concierge Onboarding: By working through your agency, the candidate has a dedicated advocate to handle the logistics of the hire, ensuring a smooth transition into the new role.
Exclusive Access: Candidates get a "first look" at this facility before it becomes saturated with applicants on public job boards.
