Physical Therapist

Do you have an interest in home health care? Do you need flexible hours with a supportive team? Read on! 

RVHCI is looking for a Physical Therapist who’s bright and personable, knows how to adhere to policies, is extremely dependable and excited about learning. 

At RVHCI, you’ll learn all regulatory requirements during your first 4-hour onboarding session. There’s no read-through of our 500-page binder, but rather a dynamic learning environment where you gain hands-on skills. Every policy is documented and available, but we’re not about checking boxes. We want you to see the bigger picture and get down to caring for patients.

Your day-to-day involves providing physical therapy services to clients in their home, developing care plans, and providing safe, appropriate care through case management.

You’ll be evaluating clients as appropriate, communicating with all members of the team, regularly re-evaluating the client's in-home physical therapy needs and providing substantial and specialized care.

Your client loads stay the same, you get to set your own hours and tap into your Director of Nursing at any time for personalized assistance.
