    Quality Rehab Physical Therapy Location: Colorado Springs, CO Pay: $28.00–$34.00 per hour, depending on experience Position: Full-Time Schedule: Flexible weekday schedule | No weekends!

    Quality Rehab Physical Therapy is looking for a Full-Time Physical Therapy Assistant (PTA) to become part of our outpatient rehabilitation team. We are a private physical therapy practice serving the Colorado Springs community for nearly 20 years. Our clinic is built around individualized treatment, strong patient relationships, and collaboration between our therapists and support staff. Rather than operating a high-volume, rushed schedule, our clinic provides 40-minute, one-on-one treatment sessions. This allows our PTA team to concentrate on proper exercise instruction, mobility training, patient education, and progression of care.

    Whether you are an experienced PTA or recently completed your program, you'll have the opportunity to continue developing your clinical skills while working alongside an experienced rehabilitation team.

    Your Role

    As a PTA, you will work under the direction and supervision of our Physical Therapists to carry out individualized treatment programs and help patients progress toward their functional goals. Your day-to-day responsibilities may include:

    Implementing treatment plans established by the Physical Therapist

    Leading patients through therapeutic exercises and functional activities

    Assisting with mobility, strengthening, flexibility, and balance training

    Providing patient instruction and reinforcing home exercise programs

    Supporting rehabilitation for orthopedic, neurological, sports, and other conditions

    Monitoring patient response to treatment and communicating changes to the supervising PT

    Documenting treatments accurately and in a timely manner

    Maintaining a safe, clean, and professional treatment environment

    Building positive relationships with patients throughout their rehabilitation

    Working closely with PTs and other clinic team members to support patient outcomes

    Our Patient Population

    One of the benefits of working in our outpatient setting is the variety of conditions you'll encounter. Our clinic provides care for patients with:

    Orthopedic injuries

    Post-surgical rehabilitation needs

    Sports injuries and performance-related conditions

    Chronic pain

    Neurological conditions

    Stroke-related impairments

    Vestibular disorders

    Vertigo, dizziness, and balance difficulties

    Pelvic floor conditions

    Why Work at Quality Rehab?

    We designed our clinic environment to give clinicians the opportunity to provide attentive, individualized care. As part of our team, you can expect:

    40-minute individual patient sessions

    No double-booking or overlapping patients

    Flexible weekday scheduling

    No weekend shifts

    Collaborative PT and PTA team

    Supportive clinical leadership

    Opportunities for professional growth

    Continuing education support

    Established community and physician referral relationships

    A positive team-oriented workplace

    Nearly two decades of experience serving Colorado Springs

    Qualifications

    Required:

    Associate degree from an accredited Physical Therapist Assistant program

    Current Colorado PTA license or eligibility for Colorado licensure

    Strong communication and interpersonal skills

    Dependable and organized work habits

    Ability to work effectively as part of a healthcare team

    Ability to safely assist, transfer, position, and mobilize patients when required

    Commitment to professional and patient-centered care

    New graduates are encouraged to apply. Experience in outpatient orthopedics or neurological rehabilitation is helpful but not required

    The right PTA for our team is someone who is dependable, compassionate, and comfortable interacting directly with patients throughout their rehabilitation journey. We are looking for a clinician who understands that successful therapy involves more than completing exercises. Communication, encouragement, attention to detail, patient education, and teamwork all play an important role.

    If you want to work in an outpatient practice where you can focus on one patient at a time, work closely with experienced clinicians, and continue growing professionally, we invite you to apply.
