About us:
The Central Highlands Allied Health team is all about big-picture, people-first care — because you're more than just a referral. Our physios are movement maestros, helping prevent, diagnose and treat pain and movement issues while boosting strength, function and overall wellbeing.
As part of Central Queensland Hospital and Health Service (CQHHS), we support patients of all ages — from acute hospital stays to post-discharge recovery and specialised outpatient or community care. Working side by side with a multidisciplinary team, we focus on getting people back to doing what they love and building healthier, stronger communities along the way.

From acute and sub-acute wards to paediatrics, outpatient clinics, ambulatory care and community settings, you'll follow patients across the full journey of care — keeping things seamless, supportive and centred around what matters most to them. With a varied caseload and a strong interdisciplinary team approach, you'll use your specialised assessment and treatment skills to boost function, independence and quality of life. Flexible, dynamic and always patient-focused — this is rural physio at its best.
About you:
