Make a Meaningful Impact — Wherever Life Happens

Join our Home and Community Program and practice therapy the way it was meant to be: functional, flexible, and truly life-changing.

Who We’re Looking For

We’re seeking an experienced Physical Therapist who is passionate about delivering care beyond the walls of a clinic.

You’ll thrive in this role if you:

  • Love providing real-world, functional rehabilitation in homes and community settings
  • Feel energized helping patients apply skills in everyday life — from cooking in their own kitchen to navigating grocery stores, restaurants, outdoor activities, school, and the workplace
  • Enjoy working independently while still feeling supported by a collaborative, dynamic team of therapists
  • Value creativity, autonomy, and meaningful patient connections

What You’ll Receive

We believe great clinicians deserve flexibility, support, and room to grow:

  • A schedule you help design — built around your life
  • Competitive Salary
  • Paid driving time, travel, and mileage reimbursement
  • Access to educational programs and continuing education available for Full Time employees
  • Growth and advancement opportunities within a supportive organization

If you’re ready to step outside traditional therapy settings and make a lasting impact in patients’ everyday lives, we’d love to meet you.

  • Conduct discharge evaluations; recommend home and community safety modifications; provide referrals and educational resources to support continuity of care.

  • Communicate patient needs, progress, and outcomes clearly to the interdisciplinary team, physicians, patients, and families.

  • Willingness to complete required health screenings/exams per location or state policy.

Experience
  • 1+ years of physical therapy experience preferred; new grads with strong neuro rehab clinical rotations will be considered.
