DATA & ANALYTICS
In December 2018, we surveyed 795 physical therapists to try to understand why so many practices were having trouble hiring. The results were clear.
PTs rated the “average difficulty” of finding a job at only 3.2 out of 10. If physical therapists are finding jobs easily, that means it’s going to be harder for you to hire.
56% of physical therapists found a job before they graduated. The other 44% found a job within 9.2 weeks of graduation. You need to act fast to hire.
There is a shortage of 29,000 FTE physical therapists and supply cannot meet a growing patient demand. The number of new therapists is growing slowly. This increases demand for PTs and makes hiring more difficult. (APTA, 2016)
The population of individuals aged 55+ will increase by 28% between 2010 and 2020. This means a larger patient demographic who will be focused on aging in place. More patients to treat increases demand for PTs. (US Census Bureau, 2018)
Since 2013, post-acute care and home health have expanded rapidly. As Medicaid expansion progresses across the U.S., this means an additional 4.3-4.7 million patients will be covered by insurance, with many of them eligible for rehab therapies. (Urban Institute, 2018)
Each year there is a net increase of 8,000 PTs. However, with attrition rates as high as 3.5%, this ratio cannot support the concurrent increase in demand for physical therapy services. (APTA, 2016)
