Therapy Director Jobs in North Carolina

A Therapy Director is a key player in the therapy industry, responsible for overseeing and coordinating the operations of a therapy department, whether it be physical, occupational, or speech therapy. They manage the therapy staff, monitor patient care, develop treatment plans, and ensure the department complies with all regulations and standards. The Therapy Director also plays an integral role in budgeting, hiring, staff training, and performance evaluation. They are often the liaison between the therapy department and other healthcare professionals, ensuring a holistic approach to patient care.

A Therapy Director should possess strong leadership, communication, and organizational skills. They require extensive knowledge in their respective field of therapy, and should stay updated with latest research and techniques. In terms of certifications, they should have a Master's or Doctorate degree in their field of therapy, and licensure is generally required. Additional certifications may depend on the specialization, such as a Board Certified Specialist in Orthopedic Physical Therapy. Prior to becoming a Therapy Director, individuals often gain experience as a practicing therapist, Therapy Supervisor, or Assistant Director of Therapy Services.
