About The Position

Mass General Brigham Home Care provides post-acute, medically necessary skilled care in the home to help homebound patients recover from illness, surgery, or injury and manage exacerbations of chronic disease. Our clinicians are highly skilled professionals who function independently while collaborating as part of a strong interdisciplinary team to deliver the highest quality patient-centered care. As a Physical Therapist on our Logan team, you will deliver 1:1 physical therapy care in patients’ homes functioning as a Case Manager. You will evaluate patients and develop personalized treatment plans, focusing on mobility, strength, fall prevention, and functional independence. You will also assess home environments to promote safety and independence, educate patients and caregivers on recovery strategies and long-term mobility, and collaborate with nurses, therapists, physicians, and social workers to support recovery. You won’t just treat symptoms — you’ll help patients regain independence and confidence in their own environment. Most of your time will be spent in Winthrop and East Boston while the Logan team also supports the following communities: Chelsea • Revere. While navigating transportation and parking in the city can be challenging, we will secure city parking passes for new team members to make the commute as convenient and stress-free as possible! This is a full-time (40 hours) position with an average of 5–6 visits per day. It includes dedicated time for documentation, chart review, visit preparation, and care coordination. You can set your own schedule by managing your own appointments, all while providing high-quality, one-on-one patient care. Your schedule works for you—supporting a better work-life balance! At Mass General Brigham, we know exceptional care doesn’t stop at the hospital doors. Our Home Care team brings advanced clinical expertise, compassion, and innovation directly to patients, helping them recover and manage chronic illness in the comfort of home. As part of a nationally respected not-for-profit health system, you’ll benefit from academic medicine and innovative care models, strong interdisciplinary collaboration, career mobility across a large healthcare network, and a mission centered on patient care, research, teaching, and community service. High-performing teams drive medical innovation — and Home Care is a critical extension of that mission. Provide physical therapy services to patients in their place of residence who have physical impairments, functional limitations or disabilities resulting from injury, disease or other causes.
