Embark on a rewarding journey as a Travel Physical Therapy Assistant, specializing in Physical Therapy Assistant roles, with dynamic opportunities across Pennsylvania and beyond. In this role, you’ll collaborate closely with licensed physical therapists to guide patients toward restored mobility, independence, and renewed confidence. Every assignment becomes a chance to make a tangible difference in someone’s daily life, from helping a new patient take their first steps after surgery to supporting an older adult returning to valued activities. As you develop clinically and personally, you’ll also discover the country’s varied landscapes—urban hubs, quiet suburban streets, and breathtaking natural scenery—creating memorable experiences with every rotation. And yes, Pennsylvania’s own beauty awaits: stroll Pennsburg’s friendly streets, savor the charm of the Pennsylvania Dutch Country nearby, and explore parks, trails, and waterways that offer restorative balance after demanding clinical days. Typical assignments span several weeks, with ongoing opportunities and extensions that align with your goals.
Location benefits: Your base in Pennsburg places you in a supportive, close-knit community that values caregiving, collaboration, and work–life balance. You’ll have access to top-tier facilities, modern equipment, and comprehensive onboarding that helps you hit the ground running. Beyond Pennsburg, this opportunity opens doors to positions across the U.S., allowing you to experience diverse healthcare settings, meet new colleagues, and broaden your clinical expertise while enjoying the stability of guaranteed hours. Pennsylvania’s rich blend of countryside charm and accessible urban centers means quick weekend getaways to the Pocono Mountains, historic sites, and vibrant nearby cities, ensuring you can recharge and return to work inspired and energized.
Role specifics and benefits: As a Physical Therapy Assistant, you’ll implement and adapt portions of the plan of care under the supervision of licensed PTs.

This role offers robust professional development, with opportunities to specialize within orthopedics, geriatrics, or neuromuscular rehabilitation, plus pathways toward leadership roles within the PTA track. The compensation package is competitive and designed to reward your impact, including a bonus, housing assistance, and extension opportunities for ongoing assignments. You’ll benefit from a comprehensive support network, including 24/7 assistance while you’re traveling with the company, dedicated clinical and relocation support, and dependable scheduling designed to fit your lifestyle. You’ll enjoy weekly pay with consistent hours, a predictable routine, and a structure that values your clinical voice as essential to patient outcomes.
