Pros
great rehab co-wokers, very knowledgeable and willing to share experiences. everyone in rehab department works well together. primarily ortho caseload, ambulatory patients. no weekends, no evenings.
Cons
inadequate support staff. difficult to get time off. only 1 PT in the 9 local offices allowed off at same time. required to accommadate walk-in patients, sent over from MD side after same day injuries. most of these patients have already spent too long waiting to see the doctors, and now you have to quickly squeeze them into your full schedule. schedule is overbooked anticipating cancellations. they will book you up to 2 to 3 patients every half hour. slow computers. you will never get lunch or a break. you will barely get time to make an urgent personal phone call. you have to accommodate late patents, no matter how late, wether they called or not, wether they are a day or two late, or if they just showed up without an appointment. think productivity numbers.
