  • Instructing patients in exercise programs, proper body mechanics, and safe use of assistive devices.
  • Guiding patients through gait training and mobility exercises.
  • 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.

We're looking for a PTA who is passionate about patient care, orthopaedics, and rehabilitation. Someone who thrives in a fast-paced outpatient therapy setting and finds purpose in helping patients get back to living their best lives.

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.
