With TMC, Physical Therapy Assistants don’t just make a living; they make a difference. Come be part of something bigger than a job!

As a Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA), you are an integral part of the rehabilitation team, working under the direction and supervision of a licensed physical therapist to help patients regain movement, alleviate pain, and restore function following injury, illness, or surgery. Here's an outline of the primary responsibilities of a Physical Therapist Assistant:

• Patient Care Implementation: Assist in the implementation of treatment plans developed by the physical therapist to address patients' specific rehabilitation goals and functional needs.
• Therapeutic Exercise and Activities: Lead patients through prescribed exercises and therapeutic activities designed to enhance their physical function and promote recovery. Instruct patients on proper exercise techniques, monitor their progress, and provide feedback to ensure safe and effective participation.
• Modalities and Physical Agents: Ensure the proper application of various treatment modalities, monitor patient responses, and adjust treatment parameters as necessary to optimize therapeutic outcomes.
• Patient and Family Education: Educate patients and their families on injury prevention strategies, proper body mechanics, and techniques for managing pain and discomfort.
• Progress Monitoring and Reporting: Monitor patients' responses to treatment interventions, document their progress, and communicate regularly with the supervising physical therapist, providing updates on patient progress and collaborating on adjustments to the treatment plan as needed.
