Mid Level
Embark on a transformative journey as a Travel Physical Therapist anchored in Helena, Montana, with the opportunity to impact patients across diverse clinical settings while enjoying the scenic beauty and rich culture of the state. In this specialty-focused role, you will bring evidence-based physical therapy interventions to individuals recovering from injury, surgery, or chronic conditions, helping them regain independence, mobility, and confidence. Your expertise will empower communities, from acute care to outpatient clinics and school-based programs, and your hands-on care will translate into measurable improvements in strength, balance, and function. Along the way, you’ll experience Montana’s horizons—the wide-open skies, the Missouri River, pristine lakes, forested trails, and a thriving arts scene in Helena—that set the stage for a fulfilling work-life balance. Start Date: 03/02/2026. Duration: Weeks. Weekly pay ranges from $1,926 to $2,007, and you’ll have guaranteed hours of 36 per week. This is the start of a rewarding chapter where your clinical mastery meets real-world impact.
Location Benefits: Helena offers a welcoming, close-knit healthcare community where collaboration and professional growth are valued. You’ll enjoy access to modern rehab facilities, collegial teams, and opportunities to mentor in a setting that prizes patient-centered outcomes. For professionals who relish variety, this role includes the possibility to work across additional U.S. locations, expanding your clinical repertoire and exposing you to different patient populations, regulatory environments, and care delivery models. Montana’s outdoor playgrounds—sunlit ski days, hiking through pine forests, fishing along trout streams, and scenic byways—complement your clinical focus by offering restorative downtime, ensuring you return to your caseload refreshed and inspired. Our program supports efficient travel, helping you manage licensing and credentialing across jurisdictions so you can seize assignments across the country with confidence.
Role Specifics and Benefits: As a Travel Physical Therapist in this program, your duties will center on comprehensive patient evaluation, diagnosis, and the development of individualized treatment plans. You’ll implement evidence-based interventions to improve mobility, strength, gait, balance, pain modulation, and functional independence, using manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, neuromuscular re-education, and assistive technology. You’ll monitor progress, adjust plans as needed, document outcomes, and communicate clearly with physicians, nurses, families, and multidisciplinary teams. You’ll also supervise and educate support staff, coordinate discharge planning, and engage in outcomes measurement to drive continuous improvement. You’ll have the opportunity for professional growth within the specialty — from advanced gait training and orthotic considerations to specialized neuro rehab or pediatrics, depending on placement needs. The role comes with competitive compensation, including a weekly pay range of $1,926 to $2,007 and guaranteed hours of 36 per week, plus a pathway to extended contracts and longer-term opportunities. You’ll receive a robust benefits package and a signing incentive or bonus, reflecting your impact from day one. Housing assistance is provided to ease relocation logistics, ensuring you have a comfortable, secure place to settle as you begin your assignment. When travel is involved, you’re never alone—our 24/7 support team is available to assist you with scheduling, licensing, travel logistics, and clinical questions, ensuring you can focus on delivering exceptional patient care. You’ll also have access to continuing education stipends, clinical mentorship, and resources that help you stay at the forefront of physical therapy practice, all while adhering to the highest standards of patient safety and ethics.
Company Values: Our organization is built on empowering clinicians to advance their careers in a supportive environment. We believe in recognizing expertise, encouraging ongoing education, and fostering an atmosphere where colleagues share knowledge, celebrate successes, and lift each other up. From onboarding to ongoing professional development, we invest in you—providing structured growth paths, leadership exposure, and opportunities to take on mentoring roles. You’ll join a team that values collaboration, compassionate care, and patient outcomes above all, with leadership that remains accessible and responsive to your needs.

This is your chance to join a company that prioritizes your professional development, rewards your expertise, and supports you every step of the way as you build a dynamic travel PT career.
