- Patient and Caregiver Education: Teach patients and families home exercise programs, safe mobility techniques, and strategies to prevent falls or re-injury.
- Documentation: Maintain accurate records of evaluations, progress notes, and discharge summaries in compliance with Medicare, Medicaid, and agency regulations.
- Collaboration: Coordinate with physicians, home health nurses, occupational therapists, and case managers to ensure comprehensive patient care.
- Home Safety Assessments: Recommend adaptive equipment (e.g., walkers, grab bars) and home modifications to enhance safety and accessibility.
- Travel: Drive to patients’ homes within a designated service area, managing a caseload of 5–7 patients per day, depending on visit duration and travel time.
Qualifications include:
- Master’s degree in physical therapy
