Some PTs Want One Building. Others Would Go Crazy in One.

If spending eight hours under fluorescent lights in the same therapy department sounds perfect, this probably isn't your job.

But maybe you like being out.

You like having independence between visits.

You don't mind driving.

You enjoy meeting different patients, walking into different environments, solving different clinical problems, and having some variety built into your day.

If that sounds more like you, keep reading.

Legacy Home Care and Home Health Care, Inc. are hiring Physical Therapists to provide home health care throughout Southern and Southwestern Minnesota.

This is a true regional field position with $110,000-$210,000 annual earning potential, a $15,000 Full-Time Sign-On Bonus, Monday-Friday scheduling, and no weekends or holidays.

Your Office Has a Windshield

You'll spend part of your day treating patients and part of your day traveling between them.

And for the right PT, that's a feature, not a drawback.

Finish a visit. Get in the car. Reset. Drive to the next patient.

No crowded therapy gym.

No next patient sitting ten feet away waiting for you to finish.

No spending your entire career inside the same four walls.

Instead, you'll manage a productive regional caseload and provide one-on-one Physical Therapy in patients' homes throughout Southern and Southwestern Minnesota.

Why This Opportunity Is Worth a Look

  • $110,000-$210,000 annual earning potential
  • $15,000 Sign-On Bonus for Full-Time PTs/DPTs
  • Full-Time or Part-Time opportunities
  • Monday-Friday only
  • No weekends
  • No holidays
  • Minimum 2 weekdays / 12 visits per week
  • Strong referral volume and caseload potential
  • One-on-one patient care
  • Regional territory-based scheduling
  • Mileage reimbursement between patient visits
  • Cell phone reimbursement every paycheck
  • Independence in the field with clinical support behind you
  • Free MedBridge Education Hub
  • Licensure reimbursement
  • Annual scrub reimbursement
  • Medical, dental, disability coverage, PTO, sick time, and 401(k) with company match for eligible employees

Every House Gives You a Different Clinical Puzzle

One patient is recovering from a joint replacement.

Another has returned home after a prolonged hospitalization.

Another has fallen twice in the past month.

Another needs enough strength and balance to safely remain at home.

You'll see the stairs, furniture, flooring, caregiver support, fall risks, and everyday obstacles affecting your patient's independence.

Then you'll use your clinical judgment to determine what needs to happen next.

What You'll Do

  • Complete in-home Physical Therapy evaluations and treatment visits
  • Complete Start of Care assessments and admissions
  • Develop individualized plans of care
  • Address strength, balance, gait, transfers, mobility, endurance, and functional independence
  • Identify fall risks and home safety concerns
  • Educate patients, families, and caregivers
  • Supervise and collaborate with Physical Therapist Assistants
  • Coordinate with nurses, physicians, therapists, and the interdisciplinary team
  • Monitor progress and modify plans of care
  • Complete accurate and timely documentation and OASIS assessments

You Don't Need to Come From Home Health

We're interested in PTs from Acute Care, Inpatient Rehabilitation, Outpatient Orthopedics, Skilled Nursing, Transitional Care, Senior Living, Hospital-Based Rehabilitation, Geriatrics, and Home Health.

Home health and OASIS experience are preferred, but they aren't required.

We're looking for a PT with strong clinical judgment, organization, communication skills, and the ability to independently manage a productive regional caseload.

You'll need a current Minnesota Physical Therapist license, valid driver's license and reliable transportation, and availability for at least 2 weekdays / 12 visits per week.

Most importantly, regional travel needs to genuinely work for you. This isn't a position where you'll occasionally leave the office. Being on the road and providing care throughout Southern and Southwestern Minnesota is part of the job.

Maybe Sitting Still Was Never Your Style Anyway

Treat a patient.

Get outside.

Drive.

Reset.

See somewhere different.

Meet the next patient.

Solve the next problem.

Then finish your week knowing Saturday, Sunday, and holidays are yours.

For the PT who enjoys independence and variety, regional home health can offer a workday that's hard to recreate inside a traditional therapy department.

And with $110,000-$210,000 annual earning potential plus a $15,000 Sign-On Bonus for Full-Time PTs/DPTs, the compensation reflects the type of clinician we're looking for.
