Bring Exceptional Care To Communities That Need It Most
Not every Physical Therapist wants to spend their career inside the same four walls.
Some clinicians are energized by variety. Some are drawn to independence. Others are looking for the opportunity to make a meaningful impact in communities where access to quality therapy services can make all the difference.
That's exactly what this opportunity offers.
Legacy Home Care and Home Health Care, Inc. are seeking a Physical Therapist to support patients throughout Southern and Southwestern Minnesota. In this regional role, you'll bring high-quality therapy services directly to patients in their homes, helping individuals recover after surgery, maintain mobility, avoid hospitalization, and remain independent in the place they most want to be.
Home health allows you to see the entire picture—not just the diagnosis, but the person, the family, and the environment in which recovery happens.
Why This Opportunity Stands OutExceptional Compensation
Enjoy $110,000–$210,000 annually plus a $15,000 Hiring Bonus for full-time therapists.
Clinical Independence
Manage your own territory and daily schedule while practicing with the autonomy experienced therapists appreciate.
Meaningful One-on-One Care
Spend your time focused on patient outcomes rather than facility productivity metrics.
Established & Stable Organization
Join one of Minnesota's most respected home care organizations with decades of experience and strong referral relationships.
Supportive Leadership
Enjoy the freedom of the field while having access to experienced clinical leaders and interdisciplinary teammates.

What You'll Be Doing
As a Physical Therapist, you'll provide individualized care designed to improve strength, balance, mobility, safety, and overall quality of life. You'll work closely with patients and families to create realistic goals and treatment plans that support long-term independence.
Responsibilities include:
- Providing in-home evaluations and treatment visits.
- Completing Start of Care assessments and admissions.

- Excellent communication and relationship-building abilities.

Why Home Health?
Because recovery is personal.
Because healing happens differently at home.
Because relationships matter.
And because the best therapists understand that improving quality of life is about much more than exercises and treatment plans.
At Legacy Home Care and Home Health Care, Inc., you'll have the opportunity to combine clinical excellence, flexibility, and exceptional earning potential while making a lasting difference for patients and families throughout Southern Minnesota.
If you're ready for a career that offers freedom, purpose, and the chance to truly change lives, we'd love to connect.
