Physical therapy job opportunities increase as individuals with disabilities and limited function increase. Unfortunately though, many physical therapists are finding that while the employment rate is high, it is still very difficult to find a highly sought after position. This is because a majority of the open positions are perpetually open because of non-competitive salaries, unreasonable work schedules, or an overabundance of patients that leads to an exceptionally low quality of practice. Therefore, the key to finding a desirable physical therapy career is to be aware of the market, and to be prepared to compete with several other physical therapists for these jobs.
PT travel job opportunities are available in private practices, schools, hospitals (in-patient and out-patient), nursing homes, manual therapy, sports therapy, aquatic therapy, hand therapy, orthopedic, SNA, home health you name it. Flexible travel, per diem or permanent scheduling also gives you the opportunity to hold more than one physical therapy job at once, as some PTs do. A physical therapist's salary is very generous and those who are willing to travel or explore areas such as acute and long-term care will find job opportunities that are financially rewarding.
