Job description

Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) — In-Home, Florida

Old Town sits where US-19/98 crosses the Suwannee River in Dixie County, the main north-south route along this stretch of the Big Bend. Crash referrals come off that corridor, and for many residents here an in-home visit is far more practical than a long drive to a clinic in a larger town. From an Old Town base our PTAs typically cover Cross City, Fanning Springs, Chiefland, and into Suwannee and the surrounding Dixie County communities. Rural distances are real but roads are quiet, and scheduling clusters visits by area. Old Town sits in Dixie County. Most visits are auto-accident recovery cases billed through the patient's auto insurance. Visits are scheduled inside the service radius you choose around your home base. Communities covered from a Old Town base include Cross City, Fanning Springs, Chiefland, Suwannee.
