Job description

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

Cape Coral is one of the largest cities in southwest Florida by area, a sprawling residential grid crossed by Cape Coral Parkway, Del Prado Boulevard, and Pine Island Road. Its size means strong demand for in-home care, and the bridges into Fort Myers concentrate the region's crash referrals. From a Cape Coral base our PTAs typically cover North Fort Myers, Fort Myers, Pine Island, and into Matlacha and Bokeelia. The canal-grid layout keeps addresses easy to reach, and visits cluster well within each quadrant of the city. Cape Coral sits in Florida County. Steady auto-injury and post-surgical referral volume across the Cape Coral area. Coverage is scoped to a service radius around your Cape Coral home base. Communities covered from a Cape Coral base include Cape Coral and adjacent neighborhoods.
