Who We Are
Adaptive Home Health is building a higher-acuity, patient-centered, skilled home health mode. Our ultimate mission is to dramatically improve patient access to home health care.
We build technology designed around the way clinicians actually work, so you can spend less time on documentation and coordination, and more time with patients.
Smarter charting: Record or dictate visits with AI Scribe, start with prefilled assessments, extract medication lists from photos, and keep all visit information in one easy-to-use place.
Scheduling that protects your time: Text patients, plan more efficient routes, and stay aligned on visit changes through one clear, coordinated schedule.
The result: less administrative burden, fewer coordination headaches, and more time for patient care.
What You Will Do
- Complete in-home OT evaluations and deliver skilled OT visits.
- Build and execute a clear plan of care focused on ADLs/IADLs, safety/fall prevention, and functional independence.
- Recommend and train on adaptive equipment and home modifications as needed.
- Coordinate with nursing and the broader care team when condition or needs change.
- Document promptly and thoroughly
Why Adaptive
Operations that back you up: You are supported by an experienced clinical and operational team so you can focus on patient care, not chasing logistics.
Clear productivity model with upside: You are paid per productivity point with clear expectations (market-specific).
Schedule flexibility: We build schedules to make field work sustainable, and we support smart routing and coordination, so your day is predictable whenever possible.
Cutting-edge tech built for clinicians: Our charting tools are designed to reduce documentation burden, and our scheduling product will streamline visit coordination and reduce last-minute changes.
Mission-driven work: We are here to expand access to high-quality home health care, and we want therapists who take pride in raising the standard.
