Embark on a rewarding journey as a Travel Physical Therapist in Oregon, Albany, where your expertise will help patients reclaim mobility, independence, and confidence. 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. As you plan your next chapter, imagine the impact you can have on individuals navigating recovery, whether they’re returning to daily activities, sports, work, or meaningful hobbies.
Albany sits in a scenic pocket of the Willamette Valley, offering a gateway to Oregon’s celebrated landscapes. Beyond your clinic, you’ll discover a palette of outdoor experiences—from forested trails and riverfront strolls to nearby parks and farm‑to‑table dining. Oregon’s renowned coastlines, the majestic Cascade Mountains, and vibrant urban centers are all 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 both professional growth and personal discovery, making your career as a Physical Therapist not only impactful but enriching on multiple fronts.
Role specifics and benefits include a comprehensive set of responsibilities designed to advance your growth within the specialty. You’ll conduct initial evaluations, design individualized therapy plans, implement therapeutic activities, monitor progress, and adjust plans to maximize functional gains. You’ll collaborate with physicians, nurses, aides, and family members to ensure continuity of care, documentation accuracy, and patient safety. A key focus will be on evidence‑based practice, pain management strategies, gait and balance retraining, and strategies that empower patients to manage their conditions beyond the clinic. The role also offers the chance to expand your expertise through mentorship, cross‑discipline collaboration, and exposure to varied caseloads, including orthopedic, neurological, geriatric, or post‑surgical rehabilitation scenarios. We understand the value of recognition, so this 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, your patients, and your family have reliable help whenever you need it, from orientation to on‑the‑ground logistics and clinical guidance. Additionally, you’ll have access to a dedicated travel concierge and administrative team to streamline licensing, onboarding, credentialing, and ongoing compliance, allowing you to focus on delivering exceptional patient care.
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 a sense of belonging and opportunity, offering pathways to expand your scope of practice, pursue specialty certifications, and participate in ongoing training. Support structures extend beyond clinical supervision, with resources designed to help you adapt to new settings, build strong professional relationships, and sustain a healthy work‑life balance. This is more than a job; it’s a platform for you to elevate your practice while contributing to communities that welcome and benefit from your expertise.
