Therapy Director Jobs in Austin, TX

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.
