Contracted
River View on the Appomattox Rehab Center - HWL
Mid Level
Step into a transformative Travel Physical Therapist role in Hopewell, Virginia, where your clinical skill will illuminate the path to better mobility, independence, and lasting quality of life for patients across multiple generations. In this role, you won’t just treat a chart; you’ll partner with individuals who are navigating pain, post-surgical recovery, stroke rehabilitation, and neurologic or vestibular challenges, guiding them through evidence-based interventions that restore confidence and function. Your daily impact will extend beyond the clinic walls as you share knowledge with families, collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, and advocate for preventative care that keeps people thriving in their communities. This opportunity is designed for therapists who crave variety, autonomy, and the chance to see the tangible difference their expertise makes—while supporting you as you explore the diverse landscapes of Virginia and beyond. Virginia’s rich history, scenic byways, and welcoming communities provide a backdrop that invites curiosity and balance, from strolling along the James River to exploring nearby parks, museums, and farm-to-table experiences. And when you’re ready for a change of scenery or a new clinical setting, the program offers the breadth to work across various locations in the United States, expanding your professional horizon without sacrificing the stability you value.
Location benefits are a standout feature of this travel assignment. Hopewell sits at a convenient nexus near Richmond and the Chesapeake Bay, offering easy access to cultural attractions, waterfront recreation, and excellent dining options, all within a short drive of larger urban amenities. The region blends small-town charm with big-city opportunities, allowing you to unwind after a rewarding day with scenic walks, local farmers markets, and historic tours. For you as a travel PT, Hopewell also serves as a springboard to other communities across the U.S.—experience mountains, coasts, rural landscapes, and metropolitan centers while maintaining the consistency of a structured contract. The opportunity to work in multiple locations across the country means you’ll broaden your professional toolkit, encounter diverse patient populations, and refine treatment approaches that enhance your adaptability, diagnostic acumen, and clinical judgment. It’s a chance to build a robust resume of real-world outcomes, all while enjoying housing assistance, a competitive weekly pay range, and a clear path to continued professional growth.
As a Physical Therapist in this assignment, your role will center on delivering patient-centered care that emphasizes functional outcomes and sustainable independence. Core responsibilities include performing comprehensive PT evaluations, developing individualized treatment plans, implementing evidence-based interventions (manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, neuromuscular reeducation, balance and gait training, and assistive device optimization), documenting progress, and communicating clearly with patients, families, and care teams. You’ll monitor progress with measurable goals, adjust plans as needed, and provide patient education that empowers self-management and adherence. The position offers professional growth opportunities within the specialty through exposure to diverse case mixes—from post-acute rehab to outpatient orthopedic and neuro-rehabilitative scenarios—coupled with mentorship from seasoned clinicians and access to continuing education resources. You’ll benefit from a competitive package that includes a signing bonus, housing assistance, and opportunities to extend assignments based on performance and organization needs. In addition, our program prioritizes comprehensive support, including 24/7 assistance while traveling, access to clinical leadership, and a robust network of peers who share best practices and collaborative problem-solving. This supportive framework ensures you can focus on delivering high-quality care while feeling connected to a national community that values your expertise.
Our company values a culture built on empowerment and collaboration. We are dedicated to advancing your career while fostering a positive work environment where you feel seen, heard, and supported. You’ll join a team that recognizes your clinical judgment, respects your professional autonomy, and provides ongoing opportunities to broaden your scope—whether through specialized certifications, leadership roles, or cross-site experiences. We emphasize open communication, reflective practice, and a commitment to compassionate care for all patients. The organization’s approach centers on your well-being as a clinician and as a person: fair scheduling practices, transparent feedback, and a network of colleagues who champion your growth and celebrate your successes. You’ll have access to resources that help you balance clinical excellence with personal development, ensuring long-term career satisfaction and the confidence to pursue new specialties or advanced practice pathways if you choose.

Guaranteed Hours: 32.0 per week. Weekly pay: $1,497-$1,560.
