Step into a dynamic Travel Physical Therapy Assistant role in Roswell, New Mexico, where every day you help patients reclaim movement and independence while contributing to a community-centered healing journey. In this specialty-focused assignment, you’ll apply hands-on techniques, patient education, and compassionate care to support rehabilitation goals across diverse clinical settings. Imagine the impact you can make as you guide individuals through pain reduction, range-of-motion improvements, and functional training that restores confidence and everyday freedom. And beyond the clinic walls, discover the beauty of New Mexico—the wide-open skies, sun-drenched deserts, rugged mountains, and vibrant cultures that color every day with inspiration. The state’s landscapes invite exploration, while your work empowers people to lead fuller lives.
Roswell offers a friendly, accessible community with a warm, welcoming vibe and proximity to outdoor adventures.

Your responsibilities include conducting therapeutic exercises, assisting with gait training and balance activities, supervising assistive devices and orthotics, applying modalities as directed, and documenting patient progress in electronic medical records. You will contribute to discharge planning, coordinate with care teams, and participate in outcome tracking to demonstrate progress and inform future care plans. You’ll learn to triage urgent issues, communicate clearly with patients and families, and uphold safety, hygiene, and documentation standards. The position offers a clear pathway for professional growth within physical therapy, with exposure to diverse patient populations and treatment modalities that sharpen assessment skills, treatment planning, and patient education.
Opportunities for advancement are a core part of this assignment. You’ll have access to clinical education resources, mentorship from seasoned PT professionals, and the chance to expand your capabilities within the field, including opportunities to deepen skills in musculoskeletal rehab, neurorehabilitation, pediatric or geriatric programs, and performance optimization as you progress. Our benefits package is designed to recognize your expertise: a competitive weekly pay range of 1,356 to 1,435 dollars, a sign-on bonus, and housing assistance to ease your transition into the region. We also offer extension opportunities for successful performers, providing continuity, increased earnings, and ongoing learning as you apply your growing skills.
