Are you ready for a workplace that truly values you and your contribution to patient care? Jefferson Healthcare is seeking a compassionate and experienced Physical Therapist to join our Home Health program. Our fully accredited program is designed to enhance the well-being of patients by providing comfort, support, and personalized care in the comfort of their own homes, thus reducing the need for hospitalization.
