This multi‑week assignment begins on 01/22/2026 and offers a robust structure: guaranteed 40 hours per week, with competitive compensation ranging from $2,303 to $2,440 weekly, and a pathway to extended opportunities that let you grow within the specialty of physical therapy.

If you’re driven to make a tangible difference through evidence‑based interventions, patient education, and collaborative care, this role invites you to shape outcomes while exploring a region famed for its natural beauty and welcoming communities.

Oregon’s coastlines, the Cascade Mountains, and vibrant urban centers are within reach for weekend adventures. The opportunity to work in Albany also opens a flexible path to other locations across the U.S., should your professional goals align with travel assignments or broader exposure to diverse patient populations.

This balance between a stable base in Oregon and potential experiences nationwide enhances professional growth and personal discovery for Physical Therapists.

Role specifics and benefits include a comprehensive set of responsibilities designed to advance your growth within the specialty:

• Conduct initial evaluations and design individualized therapy plans.
• Implement therapeutic activities, monitor progress, and adjust plans to maximize functional gains.
• Collaborate with physicians, nurses, aides, and family members to ensure continuity of care, documentation accuracy, and patient safety.
• Focus on evidence‑based practice, pain management strategies, gait and balance retraining, and strategies that empower patients to manage their conditions beyond the clinic.
• Expand expertise through mentorship, cross‑discipline collaboration, and exposure to varied caseloads (orthopedic, neurological, geriatric, or post‑surgical rehabilitation).

The assignment includes a competitive incentive bonus, housing assistance, and robust extension opportunities if you choose to continue your contract. The program provides 24/7 support as you travel with the company, ensuring you and your family have reliable help from orientation to on‑the‑ground logistics and clinical guidance. You’ll also have access to a dedicated travel concierge and administrative team to streamline licensing, onboarding, credentialing, and ongoing compliance.

The company is founded on values that empower its staff, emphasizing career advancement, professional development, and a supportive work environment. You’ll join a culture that values initiative, integrity, and compassionate care, where your voice matters in shaping clinical pathways and program improvements. The organization is committed to fostering belonging and opportunity, offering pathways to expand scope of practice, pursue specialty certifications, and participate in ongoing training.

Support structures extend beyond clinical supervision, with resources to help you adapt to new settings, build strong professional relationships, and sustain a healthy work‑life balance. This is a platform for you to elevate your practice while contributing to communities that welcome and benefit from your expertise.
