Market context
In South Carolina, allied-health roles such as physical therapy are often competitive because employers look for state licensure, CAPTE-accredited training, and, in home health, related experience or a mentoring path for less experienced candidates. Benefits like sign-on bonuses, paid time off, medical plans, mileage reimbursement, and a 401(k) match can make similar openings stand out.
