Physical Therapist (PT) for Home Health

FeldCare Connects • Tustin, CA

About The Position

FeldCare Connects is seeking a self-motivated Physical Therapist to provide home health care to adults of all ages in the Tustin area as an independent contractor. The role involves assessing and evaluating patients’ care needs to promote mobility, reduce pain, restore function, and prevent disability. Based on the evaluation, the Physical Therapist determines a treatment plan, carries out interventions to improve the patient’s well-being, and monitors progress.

The position requires sound clinical judgment in planning, implementing, and monitoring treatment, along with the ability to recognize when protocols or treatment plans may need modification and report this to the therapist. Clinicians in the network receive administrative support with assigning, communication, scheduling, care coordination, and quality assurance. The role offers flexibility to set a schedule and work in a preferred area. It is not remote: visits take place in patients’ homes, though scheduling and documentation may be completed from the clinician’s own home if desired.
