Job description

Physical Therapist Assistant – Outpatient | West Mifflin, PA

Lifeline Physical Therapy | Full-Time

We're hiring a PTA at our West Mifflin clinic — and we're looking for someone who will make a difference every day.

At Lifeline, we're an 8-location, therapist-owned outpatient practice in the Pittsburgh area. No corporate layers. No revolving door of patients you never get to know. Just solid work with a team that's invested in doing it well.

What the role looks like:

PT-directed outpatient care: post-op rehab, strength, gait, balance, functional recovery. Real caseloads. Real relationships. Documentation that stays manageable.

You're who we're looking for if you:

• Hold a PA PTA license (or is license-eligible)
• Have interest or experience in outpatient physical therapy
• Are reliable, communicative, and a genuine team player
• Want mentorship and a place to grow, not just a job
• New grads welcome

Why Lifeline:

Therapist-owned means clinicians run the show. We build team meetings, case reviews, and in-services into the schedule, not as an afterthought. Our four values (be the best you can be, be compassionate, be passionate, build relationships) drive how we operate day to day.

What we offer:

• Competitive pay based on experience
• 3+ weeks PTO
• CEU support with generous allowance
• Medical, dental, and vision
• 401(k)

Lifeline Physical Therapy — Therapist-owned. Patient-focused. People-first.
