About this role

VitalCaring Group is seeking a Physical Therapist to deliver home-based care in the Cleveland area as part of their hospice and home health services. This full-time salaried role focuses on maintaining patient comfort, mobility, and quality of life rather than active rehabilitation. You'll assess patients in their homes, develop treatment plans aligned with physician orders, educate patients and caregivers on therapeutic techniques, and coordinate with an interdisciplinary team to support dignified end-of-life care.

The position requires a state license and a bachelor's or master's degree in physical therapy, with two years of relevant experience preferred. Home health or community-based experience is valued. Beyond direct patient care, you'll document clinical progress, participate in team meetings and quality improvement activities, supervise Physical Therapy Assistants when applicable, and occasionally provide in-service training to staff.

This role suits a clinician drawn to hospice work who values flexibility and work-life balance. VitalCaring offers six weeks of paid time off annually, comprehensive health and wellness benefits, 401(k) matching, tuition reimbursement for continuing education, and a supportive team environment. The position emphasizes compassion-centered care and provides the autonomy to manage your schedule while making a direct impact on patients and families navigating end-of-life care.
