Job Description: 

I believe that better care begins at home.

Compassionate care, uncompromising service and clinical excellence - that's what Gentiva® patients have come to expect from our physical therapists for nearly 40 years. Gentiva, America's homecare leader, has set the clinical standard for today's fastest-growing segment of healthcare - homecare. By creating innovative solutions that lead to high-quality patient outcomes, Gentiva's patient-centered approach improves quality of life and independence.  

As the leader, Gentiva is positioned to offer Geriatric Outpatient Rehabilitation Services within the walls of senior living.  Offering a continuum of care from home health services to the outpatient arena is a natural progression of rehabilitation services to enhance Gentiva's mission to help our patients live more independently with a higher quality of life.  Gentiva's Outpatient Rehabilitation service line will offer physical and occupational therapy services with focused programming on fall prevention, home safety, independent living and vestibular dysfunction.
