Where You Can Work

Explore Clinical Settings

From fast-paced hospitals to one-on-one home health visits, each setting offers a unique clinical experience. Learn about the environments where our travel clinicians make an impact every day.

Skilled Nursing / Long-Term Care (SNF/LTC)

Skilled nursing facilities provide around-the-clock medical care to individuals recovering from illness, injury, or surgery, as well as those requiring long-term assistance due to chronic conditions or aging. Clinicians in SNF/LTC settings deliver rehabilitative therapy, wound care, and daily living support in a structured residential environment.

Home Health

Home health brings clinical care directly to patients in their own homes. Licensed professionals deliver skilled nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech-language pathology services, offering personalized, one-on-one care in a comfortable setting that promotes independence and faster recovery.

Hospice

Hospice settings focus on compassionate end-of-life care, prioritizing comfort, dignity, and quality of life for patients with terminal diagnoses. Care can be delivered in the patient's home, a dedicated hospice facility, or within a hospital, with a multidisciplinary team supporting both the patient and their family.

Outpatient Rehabilitation

Outpatient rehab clinics treat patients who do not require overnight hospitalization. Clinicians provide physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy services in a clinic setting, helping patients recover from injuries, surgeries, and neurological conditions while maintaining their daily routines.

Inpatient Rehabilitation

Inpatient rehab units offer intensive, multidisciplinary therapy for patients recovering from major medical events such as strokes, traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, and complex orthopedic surgeries. Patients typically receive at least three hours of therapy per day in a structured hospital-based environment.

Acute Care Hospitals

Acute care settings provide immediate, short-term treatment for patients with severe injuries, urgent medical conditions, or post-surgical needs. Clinicians work in fast-paced hospital environments including emergency departments, intensive care units, and medical-surgical floors, delivering critical interventions that stabilize and restore patient health.

Inpatient Rehabilitation Facilities (IRF)

IRFs are specialized hospitals or distinct units within hospitals dedicated entirely to rehabilitation medicine. They serve patients who need intensive, coordinated rehab programs following strokes, amputations, joint replacements, and other complex conditions, with a strong emphasis on functional outcomes and return to independence.

Long-Term Acute Care Hospitals (LTACH)

LTACHs specialize in treating patients who require extended hospital-level care, typically for 25 days or more. These facilities manage complex medical conditions such as ventilator weaning, chronic wound care, and multi-system organ failure, bridging the gap between acute care hospitalization and lower-level care settings.
