This is a great opportunity for a Physical Therapist looking to supplement their current income, maintain flexibility, or use their clinical expertise in a more personalized, patient-centered setting.

Unlike traditional rehabilitation settings, hospice physical therapy focuses on comfort, safety, mobility, and quality of life rather than aggressive rehabilitation goals. You'll work one-on-one with patients and families, helping them maintain independence where possible, improve comfort, and navigate everyday activities safely.

We're looking for a PT who is compassionate, dependable, clinically confident, and comfortable working independently while collaborating with an experienced hospice team.
