Rarely, lateral transfers of patients weighing up to 100 pounds may be required. You must be capable of demonstrating exercises and activities to patients and caregivers. Personal Protective Equipment such as gloves, goggles, gowns, and masks may be necessary due to potential exposure to hazardous materials. The work environment is dynamic and primarily indoors, with occasional outdoor responsibilities.
