Job Description & Requirements
Physical Therapist - Home Health - (PT - HH)
StartDate: ASAP Available Shifts: 8 D Pay Rate: $2431.00 - $2505.00

This Home Health Physical Therapist opportunity is based in Chesapeake, Virginia, a vibrant coastal city that offers a welcoming community, beautiful natural surroundings, and easy access to big-city amenities. Chesapeake is known for its expansive parks, greenways, and waterways, including the nearby Great Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge, scenic trails, and countless opportunities for kayaking, boating, hiking, and birdwatching. Residents enjoy a comfortable suburban lifestyle with quick access to Virginia Beach’s oceanfront, the cultural and dining scene in Norfolk, and the wider Hampton Roads region. The area offers strong schools, family-friendly neighborhoods, convenient shopping and dining, and a moderate climate that allows you to be outdoors almost year-round. In this role, you will provide one-on-one physical therapy services to patients in their homes throughout Chesapeake and nearby communities. Typical patients include adults and older adults recovering from surgery, stroke, falls, cardiac events, or managing chronic conditions. You will focus on functional mobility, strength, balance, gait training, transfer training, and home safety to help patients remain as independent as possible in their own environments. A typical day includes traveling between patient homes, completing comprehensive assessments, developing individualized plans of care, and progressing patients through evidence-based interventions. You will perform home safety and equipment evaluations, educate patients and caregivers on home exercise programs, and partner closely with nursing and other disciplines to coordinate care. Documentation is completed through an electronic medical record system using a laptop or tablet in the field. Visit volumes are structured to support quality, patient-centered care, with caseloads designed to allow for thorough assessments, hands-on treatment, and complete documentation. You can expect a mix of start-of-care assessments, routine treatment visits, and reassessment or discharge visits, depending on patient needs. Travel is generally localized within Chesapeake and nearby communities, minimizing long-distance driving while still providing variety in your day. You will join a supportive, collaborative clinical team focused on safe, effective transitions from hospital or facility to home. The home health environment offers professional autonomy while still ensuring access to mentorship, clinical resources, and regular communication with your peers. This setting is ideal for therapists who value seeing the direct impact of their interventions on daily function, enjoy problem-solving within the home environment, and want to build strong relationships with patients and families. Working in Chesapeake gives you the opportunity to advance your career while living in an area known for its parks, waterways, community events, and proximity to beaches and cultural attractions. Whether you prefer quiet neighborhoods, waterfront living, or quick access to downtown amenities, this region offers a balance of work and lifestyle that is particularly appealing to healthcare professionals.
