"Coming into my first position, I am willing to do whatever it takes to see patients that need my services. I don't have direct experience providing in-home care to patients, but with some job shadowing with an experienced therapist, I would be more than willing to make these types of visits if ever required."

"Throughout my career, I have performed both in-home visits and took part in outreach opportunities as well. To better serve the needs of the patient, I am willing to take part in any of the opportunities that may come."

Many rehabilitation clinics/organizations have spread their wings over a large territory or provide in-home care to patients. For this question, it is important for you to have reviewed the expectations of the position prior to the interview. If travel was an expectation for the position, there should have been details in the job posting. Researching the organizations website will also tell you if they have multiple sites or make in-home visits. Be open and honest with your interviewer on your availability.

"In getting to know the organization better, I am open to providing therapy outreach to any of the clinics in the territory. Are you able to tell me how scheduling works for outreach opportunities?"
