Travel Physical Therapist Job

Embark on a transformative journey as a Travel Physical Therapist in Massachusetts, New Bedford, where your expertise will empower patients to reclaim mobility, independence, and confidence in daily life. Imagine guiding individuals through tailored therapies that restore strength after surgery, ease chronic pain, and help children and adults alike return to school, work, and play. In this role, your clinical judgment, compassionate communication, and hands-on techniques will make tangible, lasting differences. Beyond the clinic walls, you'll discover a state rich with history, culture, and natural beauty, where your patient outcomes are matched by memorable experiences in a region that blends maritime charm with urban vitality.

Massachusetts is a tapestry of allure and opportunity. Picture strolling along Cape Cod's sandy shores, exploring the bustle of Boston's historic streets, wandering the scenic Berkshires for seasonal concerts and falls foliage, or enjoying the seaside ambiance of New Bedford and the South Coast. The area offers a unique blend of coastal relaxation and urban access, with vibrant art scenes, world-class dining, and welcoming communities that value health and wellness. As a travel therapist, you'll also have the chance to experience other locations across the U.S., expanding your professional horizons while maintaining a supportive home base.

You'll lead therapeutic exercises, gait training, manual therapy, and assistive device education, tailoring interventions to diverse ages and diagnoses. The position emphasizes ongoing professional development through exposure to varied clinical settings, equipment, and case complexity-offering opportunities to refine areas such as orthopedics, neuromuscular rehab, pediatrics, or geriatrics, depending on patient needs and your interests. To support your success, you'll have access to robust resources, including a dedicated clinical liaison, a comprehensive orientation, and a program designed to accelerate your confidence and impact in a travel setting. The arrangement offers competitive compensation, including a sign-on bonus potential, plus housing assistance to ease relocation. There is flexibility for contract extensions, allowing you to continue building relationships with communities you've come to value while expanding your professional footprint. You'll also benefit from 24 / 7 support from our seasoned travel team, ensuring you're never navigating challenges alone on the road.

Our company values your growth and well-being as pillars of performance. We're committed to empowering you with the tools, mentorship, and environments that advance your clinical expertise and leadership potential. You'll join a culture that recognizes your contributions, celebrates continuous learning, and fosters collaboration with clinicians across settings.
