Quality Rehab Physical Therapy Location: Colorado Springs, CO Pay: $28.00–$34.00 per hour, depending on experience Position: Full-Time Schedule: Flexible weekday schedule | No weekends!

Quality Rehab Physical Therapy is looking for a Full-Time Physical Therapy Assistant (PTA) to become part of our outpatient rehabilitation team. We are a private physical therapy practice serving the Colorado Springs community for nearly 20 years. Our clinic is built around individualized treatment, strong patient relationships, and collaboration between our therapists and support staff. Rather than operating a high-volume, rushed schedule, our clinic provides 40-minute, one-on-one treatment sessions. This allows our PTA team to concentrate on proper exercise instruction, mobility training, patient education, and progression of care.

Whether you are an experienced PTA or recently completed your program, you'll have the opportunity to continue developing your clinical skills while working alongside an experienced rehabilitation team.

Your Role

As a PTA, you will work under the direction and supervision of our Physical Therapists to carry out individualized treatment programs and help patients progress toward their functional goals. Your day-to-day responsibilities may include:

Implementing treatment plans established by the Physical Therapist

Leading patients through therapeutic exercises and functional activities

Assisting with mobility, strengthening, flexibility, and balance training

Providing patient instruction and reinforcing home exercise programs

Supporting rehabilitation for orthopedic, neurological, sports, and other conditions

Monitoring patient response to treatment and communicating changes to the supervising PT

Documenting treatments accurately and in a timely manner

Maintaining a safe, clean, and professional treatment environment

Building positive relationships with patients throughout their rehabilitation

Working closely with PTs and other clinic team members to support patient outcomes

Our Patient Population

One of the benefits of working in our outpatient setting is the variety of conditions you'll encounter. Our clinic provides care for patients with:

Orthopedic injuries

Post-surgical rehabilitation needs

Sports injuries and performance-related conditions

Chronic pain

Neurological conditions

Stroke-related impairments

Vestibular disorders

Vertigo, dizziness, and balance difficulties

Pelvic floor conditions

Why Work at Quality Rehab?

We designed our clinic environment to give clinicians the opportunity to provide attentive, individualized care. As part of our team, you can expect:

40-minute individual patient sessions

No double-booking or overlapping patients

Flexible weekday scheduling

No weekend shifts

Collaborative PT and PTA team

Supportive clinical leadership

Opportunities for professional growth

Continuing education support

Established community and physician referral relationships

A positive team-oriented workplace

Nearly two decades of experience serving Colorado Springs

Qualifications

Required:

Associate degree from an accredited Physical Therapist Assistant program

Current Colorado PTA license or eligibility for Colorado licensure

Strong communication and interpersonal skills

Dependable and organized work habits

Ability to work effectively as part of a healthcare team

Ability to safely assist, transfer, position, and mobilize patients when required

Commitment to professional and patient-centered care

New graduates are encouraged to apply. Experience in outpatient orthopedics or neurological rehabilitation is helpful but not required

The right PTA for our team is someone who is dependable, compassionate, and comfortable interacting directly with patients throughout their rehabilitation journey. We are looking for a clinician who understands that successful therapy involves more than completing exercises. Communication, encouragement, attention to detail, patient education, and teamwork all play an important role.

If you want to work in an outpatient practice where you can focus on one patient at a time, work closely with experienced clinicians, and continue growing professionally, we invite you to apply.
