Description
Mass General Brigham relies on a wide range of professionals, including doctors, nurses, business people, tech experts, researchers, and systems analysts to advance our mission. As a not-for-profit, we support patient care, research, teaching, and community service, striving to provide exceptional care. We believe that high-performing teams drive groundbreaking medical discoveries and invite all applicants to join us and experience what it means to be part of Mass General Brigham.
Job Summary
Bring your clinical expertise beyond the hospital walls—while still practicing at the top of acute care.Mass General Brigham’s Home Hospital program is redefining how inpatient care is delivered. As a Per Diem Physical Therapist, you’ll treat medically complex patients in their homes—providing true inpatient-level care in a dynamic, interdisciplinary environment.
Why This Role Is Different:
This is not traditional home care.
You’ll work with patients who meet acute inpatient criteria, collaborating closely with physicians, nurses, and the broader care team as conditions evolve in real time. Think: active medical management, medication changes, ongoing diagnostics, and rapid care plan adjustments—all happening in the home setting.
You’ll also be part of a small, highly collaborative PT team (4 full-time PTs) helping to build and grow one of the largest Home Hospital programs in the country.
If you’re looking for flexibility without stepping away from acute-level care, this role offers a rare opportunity to do both.
