We bring physical, occupational and speech therapy to homes across Newark and the rest of Essex County. Medicare Part B accepted, no homebound requirement, and no referral needed to start.
We also have a clinic right here: Holsman Physical Therapy – Newark at 902 N. 5th St., Suite C104, Newark (973-910-2300). Patients often start at home after surgery or a hospital stay, then move to the clinic once driving is easier.
If you’re going home from Newark Beth Israel Medical Center on Lyons Avenue, therapy can start in your own home. Once you’re steady again, we help you get back to community spots like the Nellie Grier Senior Center on Maple Avenue, one of the city’s five senior centers.
At home, your therapist works on the things that matter in your own space: getting in and out of bed and the car, managing your stairs, walking safely on the routes you use every day, and setting up the bathroom and kitchen to prevent falls. Common reasons Newark patients start in-home therapy include recovery after a hip or knee replacement, a fall or balance problem, a stroke or Parkinson’s disease, and weakness after a hospital stay.
Yes. Holsman provides in-home physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy in Newark and across Essex County. Call 862-250-6697 or use the form on this page, and we’ll confirm a visit time for your street.
No referral is needed to start. Under New Jersey’s Direct Access law you can begin physical therapy without a prescription. Within 30 days of your first treatment, we send a written progress update to your physician or another licensed health care professional you choose, even if you’re improving. For Medicare, your physician or nurse practitioner signs off on your plan of care, and we coordinate that for you. Some insurance plans have their own referral rules, so we verify your coverage before the first visit.
No. Our in-home therapy is billed under Medicare Part B as outpatient therapy, which has no homebound requirement. Homebound status applies to home health agency care under Part A, which is a different service.
