Fortis Jobs in Georgia (NOW HIRING)

You are the reason a resident who couldn't tolerate 30 minutes of PT last week is walking to the dining room this week.

As Fortis Care's Physiatry Advanced Practice Provider, you round at our partner skilled nursing facility in Savannah and see the residents who are stuck — the ones whose knee pain, shoulder impingement, spasticity, or neuropathic pain is keeping them from participating in therapy. You assess what's blocking them, you treat it, and you hand them back to the therapy team ready to work.

1. Evaluate residents flagged by therapy or nursing as unable to progress — a focused functional, musculoskeletal, and neuromuscular exam to find the actual barrier.
2. Treat it directly: peripheral joint and soft-tissue injections (knees, shoulders, hips), spasticity management including botulinum toxin, trigger point and dry needling, and targeted medication management.
3. Build the plan with PT/OT, nursing, and the attending team — including DME, bracing, and adaptive equipment — so the functional gain sticks after you leave the room
4. Follow through: recheck, adjust, document, and escalate or refer anything outside physiatry's lane.
5. Teach: you become the facility's go-to resource on therapy readiness, mobility, fall prevention, and pain that's getting in the way of recovery.

• You want to own a panel and be the expert in the building, not the seventh provider in a rotation.
• You're interested in procedures — or already doing them — and want to build real volume in peripheral joint injections and spasticity management.
• You like geriatric and post-acute medicine and find complexity interesting rather than exhausting.
• You're comfortable making decisions independently and know when to pick up the phone.
• You want measurable wins: a resident who regains transfers, a discharge home instead of long-term care, a readmission that didn't happen.
