UPMC Home Healthcare of Central Pennsylvania is hiring Physical Therapists in Bedford, Blair, Cambria, and Somerset counties! Sign-on bonus offered to eligible employees!

Meet Melissa, a Home Health Physical Therapist for UPMC in her community of North Central Pennsylvania. We asked Melissa to share what her favorite part of her work is, and why she’d recommend Home Health PT to others!

"As a home health PT, I provide care for my patients in the comfort of their own home. I am allowed to see the obstacles that the patient encounters first hand, and am challenged to be able to provide them with solutions using the equipment that they already have in their home or by making home safety recommendations. I can provide one-on-one care to my patients, which allows me to connect with them and their loved ones and truly understand what they want to accomplish. My primary goal is for them to be able to manage safely and effectively within their given environment. It’s a very special thing when you see a patient be able to succeed at a task in their home that they struggled with only a few weeks before.

UPMC provides clinicians—like me!—with a variety of areas of physical therapy that they can choose to practice. UPMC Home Care provides physical therapy to patients who are homebound and unable to access the community for therapy services. I transitioned to home health physical therapy in the fall of 2017 after having my 2 children and needing a more flexible schedule to allow me to manage both my career and home life effectively."
