  • Communicating patient status changes promptly to the supervising Physical Therapist.
  • Serving as a clinical instructor and mentor for PTA students.
  • Supporting the therapy team and clinic operations as needed.

Required Qualifications:
  • Graduate of an accredited Physical Therapy Assistant program.
  • Active Florida PTA license.
  • Current CPR certification.
  • Compassionate, patient-focused, and motivated to help people achieve their rehab goals.
  • Strong communication skills and ability to work as part of a team.
