Help Patients Stay Independent in Their Own Homes

@Home Therapy is hiring an Occupational Therapist to serve adult patients across Brooklyn. This role centers on delivering practical, home-based interventions that help individuals maintain independence, improve safety, and function more confidently in their daily routines.
We’re looking for clinicians who enjoy working outside of a clinic setting and value building meaningful connections with patients in their own environments.

What This Role Involves:

Home Mobility Assessment:

• Evaluate balance, gait, strength, range of motion, and functional mobility in the home environment.
• Identify environmental and physical barriers that may affect safe mobility and independence.

Functional Rehabilitation Services:

• Develop and implement individualized treatment plans to improve or maintain mobility, strength, balance, and functional independence.
• Provide rehabilitation for patients recovering from illness, injury, surgery, or managing chronic conditions.

Real-World Movement Training:

• Train patients in safe transfers, ambulation, stair negotiation (when applicable), and household mobility.
• Educate patients and caregivers on fall prevention, safe movement strategies, and the use of assistive devices.

Ongoing Progress Monitoring:

• Monitor patient progress, reassess functional status, and modify treatment plans based on clinical findings.
• Collaborate with physicians and the interdisciplinary care team to support patient goals.

Documentation & Compliance:

• Complete timely documentation using the agency's electronic medical record (EMR) system.
• Maintain compliance with clinical, regulatory, and agency documentation standards.

Work Style & Flexibility:

• Set your own schedule and service area within Brooklyn. 
• Independent contractor role with autonomy over workload. 
• Minimal administrative burden with support from coordination staff.

Qualifications:

• Current New York State OT license.
• Interest in working with adult and geriatric populations. 
• Ability to work independently in a field-based setting. 
• Strong communication and problem-solving skills. 
• Basic comfort with digital documentation systems.

A Good Fit for This Position:

This opportunity is ideal for Occupational Therapists who:

• Prefer a mobile, community-based role over clinic work.
• Enjoy adapting therapy to real-life home environments. 
• Want control over their schedule and patient volume.

Get Started:

If you’re ready to bring functional, patient-centered care directly into the community and want a role that offers both flexibility and impact, apply today to join @Home Therapy.
