About This Physical Therapist Assistant Assignment

ProTherapy Staffing is hiring a Travel Physical Therapist Assistant for a travel assignment at a SNF facility in Petoskey, Michigan. This position pays $1,260 per week and includes housing and meal stipends that are non-taxable when the IRS tax-home rules are met.

The Role

Physical therapist assistants carry out the plan of care set by a supervising physical therapist: therapeutic exercise, gait and mobility training, and patient education, with notes for each visit. A skilled nursing facility cares for residents recovering after a hospital stay as well as long-term residents, so plans of care range from short-term rehab to keeping function.

An active Physical Therapist Assistant license in Michigan, or a compact privilege where Michigan accepts one, by the start date. License reimbursement is one of the benefits below.

Benefits

• 401k/Roth IRA
• Paid time off and sick time
• Relocation assistance
• Travel allowance — a lump sum in your contract
• Company-arranged housing on some contracts
• License reimbursement
• Unlimited CEU subscription
• Referral bonuses
• 24/7 support for therapists on assignment
• Workers compensation and liability insurance
• Health insurance through a broker, if you want it

Every position comes with stipends that are non-taxable when you meet the IRS tax-home rules, an unlimited CEU subscription, and a recruiter you can text.
