About This Role
As a Physical Therapist with Humana's home health division in Illinois, you'll visit patients in their homes to evaluate their physical condition and deliver personalized treatment based on physician-approved plans. Your day involves conducting thorough assessments, documenting clinical findings including OASIS data, and executing therapeutic interventions tailored to each patient's needs. You'll also oversee Physical Therapy Assistants, ensuring quality care delivery across your caseload. This role suits clinicians who thrive working independently in varied home settings, enjoy direct patient interaction, and have strong clinical judgment. You'll need a state license as a Registered Physical Therapist and the ability to manage your own schedule while meeting patient care demands. This is ideal for someone seeking meaningful one-on-one patient work outside a traditional clinic environment.
