Physical Therapy
Physical therapists get people back to the activities they love after injury or surgery. In this internship you help design a recovery plan for a teen soccer player coming back from ACL surgery — handling intake and safety, assessing the injury, setting goals, sequencing the rehab phases, and planning the at-home program. You will see what a hands-on healthcare career really looks like.
