Job Description

If you’re a Physical Therapist (PT) who wants to build meaningful relationships with your patients and see the long-term impact of your care—this is it.

In this setting, you will work with Medicare Part B patients in Assisted Living and Independent Communities, allowing you to follow patient progress over time and focus on improving independence, mobility and quality of life.

Unlike fast-paced short-stay environments, this role allows you to provide purposeful, patient-centered therapy, with consistency and clinical autonomy.

Therapy Management Corporation (TMC) is a trusted therapy provider dedicated to delivering high-quality rehabilitation services while creating environments where clinicians feel supported, valued and empowered. Our mission is simple: Support clinicians so they can deliver exceptional patient care. Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Treat Medicare Part B patients in Assisted Living & Independent Living Communities
  • Flexible scheduling that supports work-life balance
  • Build long-term relationships and track patient progress over time
  • Focus on quality patient care instead of high patient volume
  • Practice with clinical autonomy in a supportive therapy team environment

Responsibilities

  • Evaluate and treat residents in Assisted Living & Independent Living Communities
  • Develop personalized care plans focused on mobility, safety, and independence
  • Deliver care through therapeutic exercise, functional mobility, balance activities, and manual techniques
  • Help patients improve strength, balance, and overall quality of life
  • Collaborate with care teams, staff, and caregivers to achieve strong patient outcomes
  • Document patient progress and adjust treatment plans as needed

Qualifications

  • Compensation & Benefits:
  • Competitive compensation
  • Flexible scheduling
  • Generous PTO and paid holidays (including one personal holiday)
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401(k) with company match
  • Continuing education (CEU) and state licensure reimbursement
  • Mental wellness support program
  • New graduate tuition reimbursement opportunities
  • Career advancement and leadership development

Qualifications

  • Interest or experience in geriatric rehabilitation or senior living therapy
  • Passion for patient-centered care and improving quality of life for older adults
