Travel Physical Therapist Job

Healthforce by TLC
Fair Lawn, NJ
Embark on a purposeful journey as a Travel Physical Therapist, delivering specialized rehabilitation care in Fair Lawn, New Jersey, and across diverse U.S. settings. This opportunity is about more than a paycheck; it is a platform to impact lives, restore mobility, reduce pain, and help patients regain independence through thoughtful, evidence informed care. As a Physical Therapist traveling to this community, you will assess functional limitations, design personalized treatment plans, implement gait and balance training, manual therapy, therapeutic modalities, and neuromuscular reeducation, and you will monitor progress to optimize outcomes. You’ll collaborate with physicians, nurses, occupational therapists, and other colleagues to coordinate care that respects each patient’s goals, home environment, and daily routines. Your specialty in physical rehabilitation will be seen in the nuance of your interventions, the way you educate patients and families, and your ability to adapt plans as conditions evolve. While you answer the call to serve, you’ll also discover a state that blends suburban warmth with cultural richness and natural beauty, creating a work and life rhythm that sustains your compassion and curiosity.

Beautiful places of New Jersey invite your curiosity. From the dramatic falls and parks of Paterson to the winding trails and rivers of the Delaware Water Gap, to the sunlit beaches and historic boardwalks along the Jersey Shore, and to the scenic neighborhoods and gardens of Fair Lawn itself, the Garden State offers a tapestry of experiences that refresh your perspective. The state’s historic towns, vibrant arts scene, diverse cuisine, and easy access to major metropolitan hubs provide a backdrop that makes every assignment feel like a new chapter. Whether you savor quiet mornings by a lake, weekend explorations in scenic landscapes, or cultural excursions in nearby cities, you’ll return to the clinic with renewed energy and a deeper sense of purpose.

Location benefits go beyond one zip code. Working in Fair Lawn exposes you to a robust healthcare ecosystem, convenient transit options, and proximity to premier medical centers, rehabilitation networks, and community clinics. As a travel clinician, you may be deployed to multiple locations across the U.S., gaining exposure to outpatient clinics, inpatient rehabilitation units, and skilled nursing facilities with varied patient populations. This breadth of experience expands your clinical repertoire, sharpens your diagnostic intuition, enhances adaptability, and builds a versatile resume that supports either continued travel or transition into a local, long term role. You’ll also have access to onboarding, orientation, and ongoing mentorship designed to help you thrive in new teams and environments.

Role specifics and benefits are designed to empower your success. You will perform comprehensive evaluations, establish measurable, patient centered goals, develop and execute evidence based treatment plans, apply therapeutic modalities such as manual therapy, neurodynamic techniques, balance training, gait training, and device education. You’ll monitor progress, adjust plans, document outcomes, and communicate clearly with the care team and families. You will enjoy professional growth within the specialty through opportunities to pursue advanced certifications, participate in interdisciplinary rounds, and assume mentorship or lead responsibilities as you demonstrate impact. Competitive compensation includes weekly pay in the range of $2,187 to $2,242, with guaranteed hours of 35 per week and a structured schedule that respects patient needs and clinician well being. A sign on bonus recognizes your expertise, while housing assistance helps you settle quickly as you begin your assignment in a new community. Extension opportunities enable you to stay longer with facilities that value your contribution, deepen relationships with patients, and continue advancing your clinical craft. Comprehensive support is available 24/7 for traveling clinicians, including clinical guidance, troubleshooting, travel logistics, and personal assistance, ensuring you are never alone on the road.

Company values highlight empowerment, respect, and continuous growth. Our organization is committed to creating a supportive environment where clinicians can elevate their practice, pursue ongoing education, and advance along clear career pathways. We celebrate collaboration, integrity, and compassion, and we invest in your well being with resources that balance professional achievement with personal vitality. You’ll find constructive feedback, peer learning, and leadership that aligns with your values, providing a stable platform for sustainable career development. Our mission is to enable your best work, recognize your contributions, and partner with you on a trajectory that honors both patient outcomes and professional aspirations.

Ready to begin an exciting new chapter? If you’re ready to bring your clinical excellence, curiosity, and patient centered approach to a company that values your professional development as much as your care, apply now. This is your invitation to join a team that respects your expertise, provides generous support, and helps you grow across assignments, locations, and specialties. Start Date: 02/23/2026; Duration: Weeks; Guaranteed Hours: 35; Weekly Pay: $2,187-$2,242; with housing assistance, a bonus, and opportunities to extend. Your impact starts now.
