Educate patients and caregivers on home exercise programs, fall prevention, body mechanics, and safe use of assistive devices.

Regularly reassess patient progress and modify treatment plans to maximize outcomes.

Complete timely, accurate documentation including evaluations, daily treatment notes, progress reports, and discharge summaries.

  • Collaborate with physicians and other healthcare professionals to coordinate high-quality patient care.
  • Build trusting relationships with patients and families through compassionate, patient-centered care.

  • Current New Jersey Physical Therapist license in good standing.
  • Current CPR certification.
  • Valid driver's license and reliable transportation.

What We Offer

  • Competitive per-unit compensation.
  • Flexible scheduling that fits your lifestyle.
  • Smaller caseloads with meaningful one-on-one patient care.
  • Clinical autonomy and independence.
  • Efficient documentation system.
  • Supportive leadership and collaborative team environment.
