Job Summary

The position to which you are applying is represented by a collective bargaining unit, Massachusetts Nurses Association.

Reimagine what physical therapy can look like.

At Mass General Brigham Home Care, you'll step outside clinic walls and into meaningful, one-on-one care-helping patients regain mobility, independence, and confidence where it matters most: at home.

As a Physical Therapist, you'll have the independence to use your clinical judgment, manage your schedule, and build meaningful relationships with patients, without giving up the support of a strong team.

Why you'll like this team

• -Convenient territory: In some areas, you can walk between visits, and city parking passes are provided for new team members.
• -Dedicated Admission PT support: Dedicated Admission Physical Therapists support new patients coming into the service line and help establish their plan of care, allowing you to focus more of your time on ongoing patient visits.
• -Ancillary support services: Scheduling coordinators, liaisons, and other support services help with the administrative and coordination needs of care, allowing you to spend more time focused on your patients.
• -Strong team culture: Work alongside a collaborative team that values communication, teamwork, and supporting one another. Weekly interdisciplinary pod meetings, monthly team meetings, and quarterly in-person team days help keep the team connected.
• -Support to grow: Ongoing training, education, and opportunities to collaborate across disciplines.
