What is a remote physical therapy internship?

A Remote Physical Therapy Internship is a supervised, educational experience that allows students or recent graduates to gain practical skills and knowledge in physical therapy through online platforms. Interns typically work with licensed physical therapists, assisting with patient assessments, creating exercise plans, and participating in virtual consultations. This format enables interns to learn about patient care, documentation, and treatment planning without being physically present in a clinic. Remote internships are especially useful for those who cannot relocate or are seeking flexible learning opportunities. These internships help build foundational knowledge and professional skills necessary for future physical therapy roles.

How do remote physical therapy internships facilitate effective hands-on learning and collaboration with supervising therapists?

Remote physical therapy internships often blend virtual observation with interactive case studies and telehealth sessions, allowing interns to engage in real-time with supervising therapists and patients. Interns may participate in assessment reviews, treatment planning, and patient education through secure video platforms, receiving direct feedback and mentorship. While hands-on practice is limited remotely, many programs supplement with simulation tools, guided home exercises, and regular team meetings to foster skill development and collaboration. This structure ensures interns gain valuable clinical insights and experience working in a multidisciplinary, tech-enabled environment.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a remote physical therapy intern, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Physical Therapy Intern, you need a foundational understanding of anatomy, exercise physiology, and therapeutic techniques, typically gained through a physical therapy or kinesiology program. Familiarity with telehealth platforms, video conferencing tools, and secure patient management systems is essential for delivering virtual care. Strong communication, self-motivation, and adaptability help interns effectively engage with patients and supervisors in a remote environment. These skills ensure interns can provide quality support, maintain patient safety, and succeed in collaborative virtual healthcare settings.

While both roles support physical therapy services, they differ in credentials, work environment, and job responsibilities.

Whether you're looking for a steady part-time caseload with W-2 benefits or a full-time career with salary, W-2 per-visit, or 1099 contractor options, we offer multiple ways to build a role that fits your goals.


Full-time Physical Therapist Assistants working under our 1099 tiered compensation model have the potential to earn up to $105,300 annually, based on visit volume.


Treat one patient at a time, manage your availability, and provide individualized care without the double-booking, productivity quotas, and clinic burnout common in traditional outpatient settings.

As a Physical Therapist Assistant with Stern at Home Therapy, you will provide one-on-one physical therapy treatments to a primarily geriatric patient population in their homes throughout the Toms River area.


You will work under the supervision of licensed Physical Therapists who provide remote clinical oversight and establish each patient's plan of care.

  • $35-$50 per visit.
  • Earn more per visit as you move through the tiered compensation structure.

Full-Time 1099 Tiered Contractor Option:

  • $50-$60 per visit.
  • Earn more per visit as you move through the tiered compensation structure.
  • Earning potential of up to $105,300 annually, based on visit volume.

Full-Time Salary Option:

  • $58,000-$75,000 annually.


Benefits:

Eligible W-2 employees may receive:

  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance.
  • PTO and paid holidays.
  • 401(k) with employer match.
  • CEU support.
  • Student loan assistance.
  • Childcare assistance.
  • Wellness stipend.
  • Commuter stipend.
  • Mileage reimbursement.

Why Join Stern at Home Therapy?

  • Choose from part-time W-2, full-time salary, W-2 tiered per-visit, or 1099 tiered contractor opportunities.
  • Earn up to $105,300 annually under the full-time 1099 tiered compensation model, based on visit volume.
  • One-on-one patient care with no double-booking.
  • Work with remote supervising Physical Therapists who establish plans of care and provide clinical oversight.
  • Flexible scheduling and control over your availability.
  • No unnecessary micromanagement.
  • Dedicated administrative support for scheduling, coordination, and patient logistics.
  • Shadowing available for PTAs who are newer to home health.


Qualifications:
