Help Patients Regain Strength. Restore Independence. Rebuild Confidence.

West Nipissing General Hospital (WNGH), located in the heart of Sturgeon Falls, Ontario, is seeking a compassionate and motivated Physiotherapy Aide to join our rehabilitation team.

This is more than a support role — it is an opportunity to be directly involved in a patient’s recovery journey. From post-surgical rehabilitation to mobility restoration and strength building, you will play a vital role in helping individuals return to the activities that matter most to them.

At WNGH, we pride ourselves on delivering high-quality, patient-centred care in a close-knit hospital environment where collaboration, respect, and community connection matter.

The Role

Working under the direction of a licensed Physiotherapist, the Physiotherapy Aide supports the safe and effective delivery of rehabilitation services across the organization.

You will:

  • Prepare treatment areas and ensure equipment is ready and safe for patient use
  • Assist patients during therapy sessions, supporting mobility, exercises, and functional activities
  • Monitor and report patient progress or changes in condition to the physiotherapy team
  • Maintain accurate documentation as required
  • Support the implementation of individualized treatment plans
  • Ensure therapy spaces remain clean, organized, and welcoming
  • Contribute to a positive and supportive rehabilitation environment

This role requires attentiveness, empathy, physical stamina, and a genuine commitment to patient well-being.

What You Bring

  • Completion of a recognized Physiotherapy Assistant program
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills
  • Ability to work independently while contributing meaningfully to a collaborative healthcare team
  • Understanding of basic physiotherapy principles and patient safety practices

Most importantly, you bring a patient-first mindset and a passion for helping others regain independence.

Why Join West Nipissing General Hospital?

  • Supportive, team-oriented work culture
  • Opportunity to gain meaningful hands-on rehabilitation experience
  • Access to professional development and ongoing learning
  • The chance to make a visible impact in a rural community hospital setting

At WNGH, you are not just part of a department — you are part of a community.

Ready to Make a Difference?

If you are passionate about rehabilitation care and want to be part of a dedicated team committed to helping patients move forward — physically and personally — we encourage you to apply.

Join West Nipissing General Hospital and be part of the recovery journey.
