## Job description

* **Role:** Physical Therapist (PT)
* **Schedule:** Full-time Monday–Friday + occasional weekends (as needed)
* **Location:** Field Based
* **Compensation (Productivity Points):** $75.00 / point | $100,000-$130,000/year

## We're fixing home healthcare, and we're building our presence in Detroit

Adaptive is building an **AI-native home healthcare platform** that enables clinicians to focus on delivering best-in-class care for their patients by leveraging software and innovative support solutions. We’re building our team in **Detroit with plans to quickly develop an exceptional reputation of delivering excellent patient care.**

## The mission of this role

**Deliver excellent home health care to our patients in Detroit, and set the clinical bar, the documentation standard, and the referral-source trust that our market will be built on.**

## Objectives

1. **Carry a full, high-quality caseload:** ramp to **~28 productivity points/week** at target visit quality.
2. **Own your patients' outcomes:** drive low avoidable-hospitalization rates and strong patient-experience scores; participate in case conferences/team huddles to improve our quality.
3. **Be a referral-source ambassador:** every discharge planner, ALF, and physician you touch should *want* to send the next patient to us because you were responsive and excellent.
4. **Set the standard others copy:** your charting, cadence, and judgment become the template we onboard the next cohort against as the pod grows.

## What you'll own

* **Own the caseload as a case manager:** you’re accountable for the patient’s therapy plan, progression, and outcomes — not just individual visits.
* Complete comprehensive in-home assessments and deliver skilled PT visits.
* Build and execute a clear plan of care: gait/balance, transfers, strengthening, functional mobility, home safety, fall prevention.
* Set measurable goals, track objective progress, and adjust treatment quickly when patients stall.
* Drive multidisciplinary coordination: communicate changes in condition, align on orders, and keep the care team moving.
* Manage treatment and outcomes directly, including **PTA supervision** where appropriate.
* Coach patients and caregivers with practical home programs that actually get done.
* Document promptly and thoroughly — defensible, efficient, and consistent.

## **Who you are / how you operate**

* **Dedicated clinician:** home health experience strongly preferred
* **High ownership:** you treat your caseload like your own panel and your pod like your own business.
* **Open mindset:** Energized by the opportunity to shape the playbook and refine SOPs
* **Tech-forward:** You want to leverage software to accelerate the charting process, and you'll give us blunt feedback to make it better
* **Trust-builder:** Patients, families, and referral partners believe you because you do what you say.

## **Must-haves**

* **Active Michigan PT license (in good standing)**
* Strong clinical judgment and comfort working independently in the field
* Comfortable escalating changes in condition to RN/MD and documenting rationale clearly
* Strong communication and documentation
* Reliable follow-through on orders, frequencies, and patient goals
* Current driver’s license and comfort with daily travel across assigned territory
* Able to carry/transport basic therapy equipment as needed
* Competency in core home health PT scope

  + Safety-first mobility work: transfers, gait training, balance/fall prevention, assistive device recommendations
  + Strengthening, functional mobility, and home safety assessment/modification education
  + Patient/caregiver coaching with practical home programs

## **Nice-to-haves**

* Prior **home health** experience
* Deeper clinical experience in high-signal PT populations
* Experience supervising/mentoring **PTAs** and collaborating on care plans
* Strong organization and time management

## Our guarantee

* **Full-time target: ~28 productivity points/week**; clinicians earn **more** for exceeding it.

## The rest of the package

* **$1k bonus for referrals** (we’re growing)!
* **Benefits** for full-time (medical/dental/vision, PTO)
