You’ll have the freedom to work independently while collaborating with a supportive interdisciplinary team to design and implement personalized care plans. Therapists from all regions of Massachusetts are encouraged to apply — we offer flexible scheduling, regional assignments close to your home, and the opportunity to set your own coverage area based on availability.

  • Assist the physician in evaluating patients by applying diagnostic and prognostic tests of muscle, nerve, joint, and functional abilities.
  • Consult with and educate staff regarding the established therapy plan.
  • Teach, supervise, and counsel the patient and family members in the physical therapy program to promote independence and safety.
  • Instruct patients in the proper care and use of assistive devices such as wheelchairs, braces, crutches, canes, prosthetics, and orthotics.
  • Recommend and arrange for equipment necessary to carry out the therapy plan.
  • Coordinate outpatient services when certain procedures cannot be provided in the home.
  • Document assessments, progress notes, and evaluations in accordance with agency policy and regulatory timelines (e.g., notes completed on date of visit and filed within 48 hours).
  • Supervise Physical Therapist Assistants (PTAs) and Home Health Aides (HHAs) per agency policy, including direct observation at required intervals.
  • Monitor and report patient reactions to treatment, changes in condition, and progress toward goals to the physician and care team.
  • Communicate regularly with the physician (at least every 30 days or when changes occur) to update on patient status and obtain new or revised orders.
  • Collaborate with interdisciplinary team members, including HHAs, and provide instruction on therapy-related activities as appropriate.
  • Participate in case conferences, staff meetings, and in-service training to maintain coordination and professional growth.
  • Contribute to discharge planning and complete a Physical Therapy Discharge Summary when therapy goals are met or services are discontinued.
  • Admission Support
  • Assist in the admission process by obtaining a relevant medical history, evaluating the patient and home environment, and identifying the level of family and community support available.
  • Ensure physician orders are accurate and appropriate, and discuss necessary changes or clarifications as needed.
  • Qualifications :
  • Successful completion of an accredited Physical Therapist (PT) or Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) education program approved by one of the following :

    • The Commission on Accreditation in Physical Therapy Education (CAPTE), or

    A successor organization of CAPTE, or

  • Strong knowledge of physical therapy principles, techniques, and equipment.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Ability to work independently and as part of a collaborative healthcare team.
  • Compassionate, patient-focused approach with a commitment to providing high-quality care.
  • Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation to visit patient homes.
  • Benefits :
  • Competitive per-visit compensation with prompt payment.
  • Flexible scheduling – choose visits that fit your availability and preferred locations.
