Plumas District Hospital
Mid Level
Step into a transformative opportunity as a Travel Physical Therapist specializing in Physical Therapy in California, Quincy, where your expertise will elevate patient outcomes while you explore a region renowned for its natural beauty, community spirit, and diverse clinical settings. This role is designed for professionals who thrive on clinical autonomy, collaborative care, and the curiosity to learn from new environments. Imagine guiding patients through mobility restoration, pain reduction, and functional independence in picturesque landscapes—from river canyons and forest trails to sunny vistas that frame your daily life. With a start date of 03/10/2026, a defined duration in weeks, guaranteed hours at a consistent 40 per week, and weekly compensation in the range of $2,951 to $3,028, this opportunity blends clinical impact with financial stability and travel excitement. The position offers a robust platform to contribute meaningfully to patient recovery while building a flexible, resilient career in physical therapy.
Quincy, California, sits at the heart of a state famed for its stunning diversity—from pristine lakes and outdoor recreation to quaint towns and vibrant communities. Working in this location means experiencing a high quality of life, a welcoming small-town ambiance, and proximity to outdoor adventures that replenish your energy after patient care sessions. Beyond Quincy, the broader California landscape offers the chance to work in varied settings, expanding your professional repertoire with exposure to different populations, practice patterns, and interdisciplinary teams. The opportunity to travel occasionally across the United States enhances your professional adaptability, giving you firsthand insight into how different healthcare systems operate and how to tailor interventions to diverse cultural and linguistic needs. California’s natural splendor—deserts, Sierra Nevada peaks, redwood groves, coastlines—invites you to savor downtime with hiking, skiing, surfing, or quiet reflection after meaningful clinical days. Embrace a role that respects your need for growth, balance, and exploration, while maintaining a steady, supportive work rhythm.
Role specifics and benefits begin with a robust clinical mandate designed to sharpen your skills and expand your professional horizon. In this Travel Physical Therapist position, you will assess patients’ functional limitations, develop and implement evidence-based treatment plans, and monitor progress toward individualized goals. You’ll provide therapeutic exercises, manual therapy, gait and balance retraining, neuromuscular re-education, and functional mobility training in collaboration with physicians, nurses, therapists, and care coordinators. Documentation and outcome tracking will be precise and timely, with emphasis on quality improvement and patient safety. The role invites you to lead patient education initiatives, reinforce home exercise programs, and advocate for fall prevention and caregiver engagement as essential components of recovery. You will articulate clear plans of care, adjust interventions as patients improve, and contribute to multidisciplinary rounds and discharge planning to ensure smooth transitions from acute care to outpatient or home-based services.
This position offers competitive benefits that recognize the value you bring to the team. In addition to the stated weekly pay, you can anticipate a bonus structure that rewards patient progress milestones and program success, along with substantial housing assistance to ease relocation and temporary housing needs during travel assignments. You’ll also have extension opportunities that empower you to lengthen your stay in a high-demand setting if you find strong clinical fit and organizational support. A cornerstone of the experience is comprehensive, round-the-clock support from the company’s travel services—24/7 assistance that keeps you confident and secure as you move between assignments, clinics, and lodgings. That dependable safety net means you can devote your energy to delivering excellent PT care and building relationships with patients and local teams, not worrying about the logistics of travel.
The company’s values emphasize empowering staff through clear pathways for career advancement, ongoing professional development, and a culture of collaboration and respect. You’ll be part of a community that prioritizes a patient-centered approach while honoring your professional voice, unique interests, and goals for specialization—whether you’re aiming to deepen expertise in geriatric rehabilitation, neuro-mobility, orthopedic post-operative care, or sports-related rehabilitation. Expect mentorship, access to continuing education resources, and structured opportunities to assume greater responsibilities, such as leading therapy groups, contributing to program development, or serving as a liaison between clinics and corporate support teams. The work environment is designed to be supportive, inclusive, and responsive to your needs as a traveler, ensuring you feel valued as you adapt to new clinical teams and communities.
If you’re ready to propel your physical therapy career into a travel-forward path that honors your clinical strengths while offering extraordinary living experiences, this opportunity awaits. The role promises meaningful patient impact, a stable guaranteed schedule, and the freedom to grow professionally through diverse clinical exposures. You’ll join a company that recognizes your dedication, provides robust logistical and clinical support, and shares your commitment to advancing patient outcomes and practitioner satisfaction.
