NOW HIRING: FULL-TIME PHYSICAL THERAPIST ASSISTANT (PTA)
Fair Acres | Media, Pennsylvania
Full-Time | Comprehensive Benefits | Skilled Nursing & Rehabilitation
Ready for a PTA Career Where You Feel Supported, Valued, and Excited to Come to Work?
What if your next Physical Therapist Assistant opportunity offered more than just a paycheck?
Imagine being part of a rehabilitation team where your contributions matter, your clinical skills are appreciated, and every day brings an opportunity to make a meaningful difference in someone's life.
At AdvantageCare Rehabilitation, we're looking for a compassionate, motivated Full-Time Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) to join our rehabilitation team at Fair Acres in Media, Pennsylvania!
Whether you're an experienced PTA looking for a fresh start, a newer clinician ready to build your career, or a new graduate searching for the right team to help you succeed, we'd love to meet you!
We believe that great patient care begins with great clinicians, and great clinicians deserve a workplace where they can thrive.
๐ Why You'll Love This Opportunity
Supportive Leadership That Understands Rehabilitation
At AdvantageCare Rehabilitation, therapy isn't just another department. It's the foundation of who we are.
Our organization was founded by therapists who understand the importance of quality care, professional collaboration, and creating an environment where clinicians feel supported.
You'll have the opportunity to work with a rehabilitation team that values communication, teamwork, and the contributions of every clinician.
Make a Real Difference, One Step at a Time
At Fair Acres, you'll help residents regain strength, improve mobility, build confidence, and achieve greater independence in their daily lives.
From helping someone take their first steps after an illness to improving balance and mobility so they can safely participate in everyday activities, you'll play an important role in their rehabilitation journey.
Every step forward is a victory, and you'll be part of making those moments happen!
Clinical Collaboration with the Support You Deserve
As a Physical Therapist Assistant, you'll work closely with licensed Physical Therapists to carry out individualized treatment plans designed to help residents achieve their functional goals.
We value your observations, clinical skills, and input as an important part of the rehabilitation process.
You'll have the opportunity to contribute to meaningful patient care while working within your professional scope of practice and benefiting from the guidance of an experienced rehabilitation team.
A Team That Works Together
Great rehabilitation outcomes begin with strong teamwork.
You'll collaborate with Physical Therapists, Occupational Therapists, Certified Occupational Therapy Assistants, Speech-Language Pathologists, nursing staff, and other healthcare professionals.
Together, you'll help residents work toward greater independence while fostering a positive, supportive treatment environment.
Full-Time Stability and Opportunities to Grow
Looking for a place where you can build a career rather than simply fill a position?
This full-time opportunity offers the chance to establish meaningful patient relationships, strengthen your clinical skills, and grow professionally within an organization that believes in developing its team members and promoting from within.
๐ฉบ What You'll Do
As a Full-Time Physical Therapist Assistant at Fair Acres, you'll provide skilled physical therapy interventions under the direction and supervision of a licensed Physical Therapist.
Your work will help residents improve mobility, restore functional abilities, and achieve greater independence.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Implement individualized physical therapy treatment plans established by the supervising Physical Therapist.
- Provide therapeutic exercises and activities designed to improve strength, endurance, balance, coordination, and functional mobility.
- Assist residents with gait training, transfer training, bed mobility, and safe movement techniques.
- Utilize appropriate therapeutic interventions and equipment to support rehabilitation goals.
- Help residents improve walking ability, mobility, and independence with everyday activities.
- Monitor resident responses to treatment and communicate progress, concerns, or changes in condition to the supervising Physical Therapist.
- Provide education to residents, families, and caregivers regarding safe mobility, therapeutic exercises, and fall-prevention strategies.
- Collaborate with Physical Therapists and other interdisciplinary team members to support individualized rehabilitation goals.
- Maintain accurate, timely clinical documentation in accordance with professional, regulatory, and facility standards.
- Participate in interdisciplinary communication, progress discussions, and care coordination as appropriate.
- Promote a safe, encouraging, and compassionate rehabilitation environment.
Most importantly, you'll help residents celebrate the progress that makes a difference in their everyday lives!
