Travel Job Description & Requirements

Physical Therapist Assistant - Home Health - (PTA - HH)

StartDate: ASAP Available Shifts: 8 D Pay Rate: $1637.00 - $1687.00

This Home Health Physical Therapist Assistant position is based in Forest Hill, Maryland, a welcoming Harford County community that offers a comfortable suburban lifestyle with quick access to both quiet green spaces and vibrant town centers. Forest Hill is just minutes from Bel Air, where you’ll find locally owned restaurants, coffee shops, and boutiques, along with convenient shopping and services. The area features numerous parks, walking and biking trails, and is an easy drive to the Chesapeake Bay, where you can enjoy boating, fishing, and waterfront dining. With its highly regarded schools, active community organizations, and family-friendly recreational programs, Forest Hill is an appealing place to live and work, whether you enjoy outdoor activities, local festivals, or quick trips into Baltimore for arts, sports, and entertainment.

As a Home Health PTA in this region, you will provide one-on-one rehabilitative care to patients in the comfort of their homes throughout Forest Hill and the surrounding Harford County communities. You will work under the direction and supervision of a licensed Physical Therapist, carrying out the established plan of care and helping patients restore function, improve mobility, and maximize independence. Your typical day will involve traveling between patient residences, completing scheduled visits, documenting care in an electronic medical record system, and communicating regularly with the interdisciplinary team to ensure continuity and quality of care.

Typical responsibilities include performing therapeutic exercises, balance and gait training, transfer training, and functional mobility activities; instructing patients and caregivers in home exercise programs; making recommendations for home safety modifications and durable medical equipment; and monitoring patients’ responses to therapy, reporting changes to the supervising Physical Therapist. You will see a diverse caseload, such as patients recovering from joint replacement, orthopedic injuries, stroke and other neurologic conditions, cardiac events, and general deconditioning. The home setting allows you to tailor interventions to each patient’s unique environment and goals, making your work highly impactful and personally meaningful.

Patient volumes and visit frequencies are designed to support safe, effective care while allowing adequate time for thorough treatment and documentation. Most PTAs in this setting manage a field schedule that may include a mix of morning, afternoon, and early evening visits, with flexibility to align with patient needs and team scheduling. Weekday schedules are typical, with potential for occasional weekend or holiday coverage depending on agency needs and your availability.

You will be part of a supportive, collaborative clinical team that values communication, professional growth, and evidence-based practice. Newer home health PTAs can expect guidance from experienced clinicians, including joint visits, case conferences, and ongoing feedback to help you build confidence in the field environment. The organization places emphasis on quality outcomes, patient satisfaction, and teamwork, giving you a clear framework for professional development and opportunities to expand your skills with varied diagnoses and patient populations.

Working in home health in Forest Hill and greater Harford County offers a distinctive blend of professional challenge and lifestyle balance. You gain the autonomy of independent practice within patient homes, while still having the support of a close-knit clinical team and leadership committed to high standards of care. At the same time, you can enjoy the region’s scenic parks, trails, and nearby Chesapeake Bay access, as well as a thriving local community with events, seasonal festivals, and cultural activities throughout the year.
