Physiotherapist (m/f/d) 80-100%

You know exactly what physiotherapy is really about — not ten minutes on a machine and a sheet of exercises to take home. It’s about Mr M. being able to climb the stairs to the second floor by himself again. About Mrs W. going to the letterbox alone after her hip operation. About someone who no longer thought it possible managing it after all — because you know where to start. That’s exactly why we exist.

• 08:00 You start with your company car. First assignment in Oerlikon — client after stroke, gait training and balance. You already know her, know what’s planned for this week.
• 08:15 Staircase instead of therapy room. Three steps, one handrail, no banister on the left side. This is where what really matters in everyday life becomes visible. You observe, correct, instruct the husband for exercises between your visits.
• 09:45 Short drive to Seebach, less than 15 minutes. On the way you call the occupational therapist — shared client, coordination on assistive devices. Rollator or stick? Decision made together today.
• 10:15 Second assignment. Mobilisation after hip replacement. You look at the route from bed to bathroom, the door thresholds, the entrance — and immediately know how the rehabilitation will look over the next three weeks. You write the report to the health insurance later via app.
• 12:30 Lunch break — you choose where. No canteen table, no briefing in the meeting room.
• 13:30 to 16:30 Three more assignments in Affoltern, Höngg and Wipkingen. Fall prevention, respiratory therapy, strength building — all in the real everyday life of the clients. You finish at 17:00.

• Mobile physiotherapy at clients’ homes — apartment, staircase, neighbourhood
• Neurorehabilitation after stroke, trauma and in neurodegenerative diseases
• Geriatric and orthopaedic rehabilitation — after hip replacement, knee replacement, fall or hospital discharge
• Gait training, balance training and fall prevention in the real living environment
• Manual therapy, mobilisation and respiratory therapy — according to your client’s needs
• Instructing relatives — as co-therapists in everyday life between your visits
• Interdisciplinary collaboration with occupational therapy, speech therapy and nursing for the same client
• Reports for disability insurance, health insurers and referring doctors — digital, on the go

• Diploma as a physiotherapist FH or equivalent — recognised in Switzerland
• Driving licence category B — you drive daily between your assignments. Company car including private use provided from day 1.
• Experience with adults — neurology, geriatrics, orthopaedics. Focus on paediatrics is a different field.
• Independent working — you decide on site, without a boss in the room. The team is reachable by phone, but not present.
• You don’t need your own therapy room — your workplace is the client’s home. That’s method, not a compromise.

What we offer:

• 🚗 Company car including private use, fuel card included — also for private trips at weekends.
• ⌛ Workload 60 to 100% — you choose, we adapt. Also for returnees or part-time models.
• 🏠 Home office for administration, reports, documentation and planning — via app, from home.
• ⏱️ No shift work, Monday to Friday — you plan your day yourself, no night shifts.
• 📍 Short distances in your region — your assignments in and around Zurich are within a radius of about 15 minutes’ drive. More time for therapy, less time in the car.
• 🧑 🎓 Further training supported, both in time and financially — neurorehabilitation, manual therapy, assistive device provision.
• 🏝 5 weeks’ holiday, plus health bonus — up to 2 additional days per year.

Why reha at home — and not a clinic or practice?

• You work in real everyday life — not in a therapy room simulating everyday life. Staircase, kitchen, cellar, neighbourhood street. That is your therapy room.
• More time per client than in any clinic. No schedule, no next patient in the waiting room — you can stay where it is currently important.
• True interdisciplinarity — physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy and nursing work on the same client. Not side by side, not by file note — but agreed, coordinated, effective.
• We are the only organisation in Switzerland that combines mobile rehabilitation, therapy and nursing in this way. A workplace that exists nowhere else in this form.
