About The Position

At Mass General Brigham Home Care, we believe exceptional physical therapy starts where it matters most — in real life. Our therapists go beyond the clinic to deliver care that is deeply personalized, considering each patient’s unique home and community environment. By focusing on functional independence, real-world adaptability, and patient safety, our team makes a lasting impact where patients live, move, and thrive. If you’re a Physical Therapist who values autonomy, meaningful patient relationships, and practicing at the top of your license, this is where your skills truly shine. Mass General Brigham Home Care provides post-acute, medically necessary skilled care in the home to help homebound patients recover from illness, surgery, or injury and manage exacerbations of chronic disease. Our clinicians are highly skilled professionals who function independently while collaborating as part of a strong interdisciplinary team to deliver the highest quality patient-centered care. Provide physical therapy services to patients in their place of residence who have physical impairments, functional limitations or disabilities resulting from injury, disease or other causes. Patients may range in age from birth to over 100 years.
