Full Job Description
Physical Therapist (PT) - Home Health
  • Schedule: Full-time Monday-Friday
  • Location: Field Based (Houston Pod)
  • Compensation (Productivity Points): $75 per point
What you will do:
  • Own the caseload as a case manager: you're accountable for the patient's therapy plan, progression, and outcomes - not just individual visits.
  • Complete comprehensive in-home assessments and deliver skilled PT visits.
  • Build and execute a clear plan of care: gait/balance, transfers, strengthening, functional mobility, home safety, fall prevention.
  • Set measurable goals, track objective progress, and adjust treatment quickly when patients stall.
  • Drive multidisciplinary coordination: communicate changes in condition, align on orders, and keep the care team moving.
  • Manage treatment and outcomes directly, including PTA supervision where appropriate.
  • Coach patients and caregivers with practical home programs that actually get done.
  • Document promptly and thoroughly
Why Adaptive
  • Operations that back you up: You are supported by an experienced clinical and operational team so you can focus on patient care, not chasing logistics.
  • Clear productivity model with upside: You are paid per productivity point with an expectation of 28 points/week
  • Schedule flexibility: We build schedules to make field work sustainable, and we support smart routing and coordination, so your day is predictable whenever possible.
  • Cutting-edge tech built for clinicians: Our charting tools are designed to reduce documentation burden, and our scheduling product (launching soon) will streamline visit coordination and reduce last-minute changes.
  • Mission-driven work: We are here to expand access to high-quality home health care, and we want therapists who take pride in raising the standard.

  • Current driver's license and comfort with daily travel across assigned territory
