Physiotherapist in rehabilitation and geriatrics – 80%
Proactive, do you want to contribute to the projects of a large institution such as the HUG and do you identify with our institutional values?

As a physiotherapist, you develop, propose, apply and evaluate the results of physiotherapy treatments in accordance with the diagnosis and medical prescription for the patients entrusted to you. In this capacity, you participate in colloquiums, discussions regarding patient situations and interprofessional coordination meetings.

You document patient files daily (treatments performed and clinical information) and enter the services provided, showing conciseness in your information transfers.

Thanks to your collective spirit, you know how to evolve within a multidisciplinary team composed of physiotherapists, occupational therapists, nurses and nursing staff, doctors, and you provide the guarantee of efficient services. In this context, you are able to work autonomously by relying on your sense of organization and your spirit of initiative.

You have an excellent sense of communication and demonstrate empathy as well as tact with internal teams and patients.

Your function leads you to participate in the multidisciplinary projects of your department and collaborate on the training of students and health professionals.

For non-French speaking candidates, a C1 level of French is required.
A perfect mastery of common IT tools (Excel, PowerPoint, Word,) is necessary to successfully carry out this mission. Mastery of HUG applications is a plus.

If you are flexible, if your good sense of organization allows you to face several simultaneous requests while keeping a smile, if you know how to work independently while enjoying collaboration in a multidisciplinary team, if a degree of mobility in the exercise of your profession attracts you and if you wish to invest yourself in your missions with conviction and dynamism, do not hesitate to apply.
