About Nexus Neurorecovery Center – Conroe

Situated on a peaceful, wooded 26-acre campus, Nexus Neurorecovery Center – Conroe offers the Rise Program, a comprehensive neurological rehabilitation program for adults recovering from severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), stroke, spinal cord injury, and other neurological diagnoses.

This campus is also home to the Life Care Program, which provides long-term residential care for individuals who have sustained serious, life-altering injuries and require ongoing clinical and behavioral support. At Nexus Neurorecovery Center, we are committed to helping each individual rebuild independence, purpose, and quality of life—because at Nexus, we’re mending minds.

The Physical Therapist (PT) plays a critical role in helping patients regain strength, mobility, and functional independence following neurological injury or complex medical illness. Through comprehensive evaluations and individualized treatment planning, the Physical Therapist provides hands-on, evidence-based therapy designed to improve movement, balance, coordination, and overall physical function.

Working as part of an interdisciplinary rehabilitation team, the Physical Therapist treats patients who may have cognitive, behavioral, or medically complex conditions in a structured therapeutic environment. This role is ideal for clinicians who enjoy working with neurologic populations and who value teamwork, consistency, and making meaningful progress with every patient.

  • Maintain accurate documentation in the electronic medical record
  • Follow Nexus policies, HIPAA standards, and safety procedures
  • Use approved de-escalation techniques when needed to maintain safety
