\n

Looking for a flexible Physical Therapy opportunity that allows you to make a difference without committing to a traditional full-time schedule?

The Care Team Hospice is seeking a compassionate and experienced Physical Therapist (PT) to support hospice patients throughout Akron, Cuyahoga Falls, OH, and surrounding communities on a PRN, paid-per-visit basis.

This is a great opportunity for a Physical Therapist looking to supplement their current income, maintain flexibility, or use their clinical expertise in a more personalized, patient-centered setting.
