My Career Choice By: Riley Campbell

Definition and Description of Career My career choice is a Physical Therapist. ‘’Physical Therapists are highly- educated, licensed health care professionals who can help patients reduce pain and improve or restore mobility.’’ ‘’Physical therapists are key to recovery for some patients who are recuperating from injuries, illnesses, and surgery. They work with patients to help them regain movement and manage pain, either in a hospital or clinical setting.’’ Information from: http://www.apta.org/AboutPTs/

Education and Training Colleges I want to go to: The University of Tennessee Health Science Center(Memphis, Tennessee) Volunteer State Community College (Gallatin, Tennessee) I want to try to go here because they were high rankings in Tennessee and I’ve heard about them before. Information from: Inforhttp://physical-therapy- schools.startclass.com/l/406/The- University-of-Tennessee-Health-Science- Centermation from: ‘’According to 2014 data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median annual wage for physical therapists was $83,940, or $39.61 per hour. However, the top 10 percent of physical therapists earned more than $116,090. ‘’ http://www.learnhowtobecome.org/physical- therapist/ ‘’ Before they are allowed to practice, physical therapists must have earned a graduate degree from accredited academic program in physical therapy. These programs typically culminate in a doctoral degree and take at least three years to complete. To gain admission to a physical therapy program, students typically need to earn a bachelor's degree, complete science prerequisite courses, gain volunteer or observation experience in physical therapy, submit Graduate Record Examination (GRE) scores, and maintain an acceptable grade-point average.’’ http://study.com/articles/Physical_Therapy_Req uired_Education_to_Be_a_Physical_Therapist.ht ml

Opportunities for Advancement There is a lot of opportunity for physical therapists. Many of them start in a clinic to gain work experience, deciding what they want to focus their careers on. If they decide to work in a hospital they will have potential in moving up the organizational chain to lead people and set policy. This helps with experience. Some physical therapists choose to concentrate on something they find enjoyable to them like working with the elderly. One of the specializations that is popular in physical therapy is working in sports medicine.

Salary and Benefits ‘’The median annual Physical Therapist salary is $81,446, as of March 31, 2017, with a range usually between $75,030- $88,369, however this can vary widely depending on a variety of factors.’’ http://www1.salary.com/Physical- Therapist-Salary.html "Being a physical therapist is very rewarding. You will work with patients one-on-one, see them progress through treatment, and know that you are really making a difference in their lives," said APTA spokesperson Meredith Harris, PT, DPT, EdD. Whether the patient's problem is a result of injury or disease, the physical therapist is a rehabilitation specialist who fosters the patient's return to maximal function.’’ http://www.apta.org/PTCareers/Benefits/

Aptitudes and Values Required Physical therapist have many skills such as: Science Skills Interpersonal Skills Motor Skills Observational Skills http://work.chron.com/skills-needed- physical-therapist- 11034.html Earn a bachelor’s degree in a health-related field Complete a doctor of a physical therapy degree program Meet your state’s licensing requirement Complete residency(optional) http://www.learnhowtobecome.org/physical-therapist/ My aptitude is wanting to help people. I like the fact that you would be helping someone achieve a life goal. Another natural ability I have is trying my hardest and being resilient.
