Job Description & Requirements
Physical Therapist - Home Health - (PT - HH)
StartDate: ASAP
Available Shifts: 8 D
Pay Rate: $2130.00 - $2195.00
This Home Health Therapist role is based in College Park, Georgia, a welcoming community just minutes from downtown Atlanta. The area offers a blend of small-city charm and big-city access, with tree-lined neighborhoods, local parks, and a lively food scene. College Park is known for its proximity to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport and convenient transportation options, making commuting and travel especially easy. Residents enjoy nearby attractions such as the Georgia International Convention Center, seasonal festivals, family-friendly parks, and quick access to Atlanta’s museums, sporting events, and entertainment districts.
In this position, you will provide one-on-one rehabilitative care to patients in their homes throughout College Park and surrounding communities. You will work under the supervision of a licensed Physical Therapist, implementing individualized care plans designed to help patients regain mobility, improve safety, and enhance independence in their daily lives. Your typical day will include traveling between patient homes, conducting therapy sessions, documenting care in the electronic medical record, and communicating updates to the interdisciplinary team.
Daily responsibilities typically include performing therapeutic exercises and functional mobility training, assisting with gait and balance activities, educating patients and caregivers on home exercise programs, and evaluating home environments for safety considerations such as fall risks and equipment needs. You will reinforce patient-specific goals, monitor progress, and collaborate with the supervising Physical Therapist and other team members to adjust treatment plans as needed.
Patient caseload commonly includes adults and older adults recovering from orthopedic surgeries, strokes, cardiac events, chronic conditions affecting mobility, and general deconditioning. Visit lengths are typically structured to allow focused, individualized care, enabling you to build strong therapeutic relationships and see the direct impact of your interventions. Patient ratios are designed to support quality time with each individual, rather than high-volume, rushed encounters.
You will be part of a supportive, collaborative home health team that values open communication, ongoing clinical development, and shared problem-solving. The environment encourages autonomy during your day-to-day visits while maintaining strong connection with physical therapists, nurses, occupational therapists, and other disciplines for coordinated care. There are opportunities to refine your skills in specific clinical areas such as orthopedic, neurologic, or cardiopulmonary rehabilitation, making this a strong role for professional growth and future career advancement.
Scheduling generally involves daytime hours with some flexibility, based on patient needs and agency requirements. Because care is provided in patients’ homes, you will plan your routes efficiently, balancing travel time and patient care responsibilities. The home health setting offers a unique blend of independence and teamwork, as you manage your own schedule while contributing meaningfully to the overall care plan for each patient.
College Park’s location near major highways and the airport makes it easy to explore Atlanta’s arts scene, sports venues, and dining destinations after work or on days off. The community offers an attractive lifestyle for professionals who appreciate both the comfort of a close-knit area and the energy of a major metropolitan region. This position is well-suited for a dedicated therapist who wants to make a tangible difference in patients’ lives by helping them function safely and confidently in the place they call home.
