- Keep every home visit safe and professional.
- Treat a range of cases — post-accident, post-surgical, and chronic-condition patients.
What you need

- Active Florida PTA license (or license-eligible).
- Knowledge of outpatient/home rehab techniques, anatomy, and medical terminology.
- Reliable transportation and the ability to manage your time and service area independently.

- Your own professional liability insurance.
- AHCA Level 2 background screening.
- Home health experience required.
