Job Location: Main Street Care Center - Avon Lake, OH 44012

Physical Therapy Assistant (PTA) - In-House

If you've worked in SNF therapy under a contract model and felt like the company's priorities didn't always match your patients' needs - this role is intentionally different.

We are an in-house, family-owned therapy organization - not a contract therapy company. Our therapy teams are clinician-led and clinician-supported, so you can focus on what you were trained to do - delivering meaningful, patient-centered care that changes lives.

Why Therapists Choose Sprenger Therapy

• In-house therapy model - your loyalty is to your residents, not a contract company's bottom line
• Therapy time protected - no routine non-therapy tasks pulling you away from patients
• Clinical judgment respected - autonomy is valued
• Mentorship available - support that goes beyond orientation
• Stable, family-oriented culture - leadership is present and accessible
• Care decisions guided by outcomes and patient needs - not short-term volume

Our therapy teams operate differently - and it shows in our retention and culture.

What You'll Do

• Provide skilled physical therapy services under PT supervision
• Assist with treatment planning, therapeutic exercise, and patient progression
• Deliver patient-centered interventions focused on mobility, strength, function, and safety
• Collaborate with OT, SLP, nursing, and the full interdisciplinary care team
• Document clearly and efficiently in support of quality outcomes

What We're Looking For

• Active PTA license in good standing
• Commitment to patient-first, outcomes-driven care
• Team-oriented mindset with strong communication skills
• New graduates welcome - mentorship provided from day one

Pay & Benefits

• Competitive compensation based on experience
• Flexible scheduling
• Generous 401(k) with company match
• Continuing education units (CEUs) - available
• Paid time off and vacation pay
• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• Company-paid life insurance
• Tuition reimbursement
• Growth opportunities within a 12-facility network
