Yukon-Kuskokwim Health Corporation (YKHC) is seeking a Physical Therapist for our location in Bethel, Alaska.
The vision: Through Native Self-Determination and Culturally Relevant Health Systems, we strive to be the healthiest people.
At the YKHC, we administer a comprehensive healthcare system throughout 58 rural communities with a mission of Working Together to Achieve Excellent Health.
YKHC serves 58 federally-recognized Tribes and operates 41 Village Clinics. Our five larger communities are served by five Sub-Regional Clinics. All communities in our service area are served by the 55-bed regional hospital in Bethel.
Our department is a hospital-based outpatient clinic serving patients from Bethel and 58 surrounding villages (an area referred to as the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta which is the size of Oregon). We mainly do outpatient care with our inpatient care being around 5%. The inpatient unit has 24 beds. We also travel out to smaller villages throughout the year.
The majority of our patients are Alaska Native and many still speak their native language. For those elders who don’t speak English, we have interpreters available to help out. We see everything and every age!
Our caseload is 9 to 10 patients a day, 40-minute sessions for evals and follow-ups, all one-on-one. No PTAs, no aids. We see mainly orthopedic diagnoses but also see neuro, vestibular, general conditioning, TMJD and wound care. Because many patients travel in from surrounding villages, the frequency we see them is much less than what is considered normal in the Lower 48. It is not uncommon to see someone 1-2x/month, therefore our treatments heavily emphasize patient education and carryover at home.
