Embark on a purposeful journey as a Travel Physical Therapy Assistant, a specialty-focused role designed to translate clinical expertise into meaningful patient gains while embracing the freedom and variety of multi-site assignments. This weeks‑long engagement in Fredericksburg, Virginia, invites you to apply your Physical Therapy Assistant skills in a setting that blends compassionate care with professional growth. On December 29, 2025, you could begin a role that balances hands-on rehabilitation with thoughtful patient education, helping individuals regain mobility, confidence, and independence. You’ll collaborate with licensed therapists to implement tailored plans, monitor responses, adjust interventions as needed, and celebrate progress that truly changes lives. Beyond the clinical impact, the experience offers the chance to explore Virginia’s rich tapestry of landscapes, from historic streets to scenic byways, while building a resilient, mobility-centered practice.
Location benefits: Fredericksburg presents a compelling mix of small-town warmth and access to broader healthcare networks. The region supports diverse patient populations, strong community hospitals, and multidisciplinary teams that value teamwork, clear communication, and quality outcomes. This assignment also sits within a program that affords travel across the United States, delivering exposure to a range of care settings—from acute and post-acute facilities to outpatient clinics—without sacrificing the predictability of a steady schedule. You’ll be guaranteed 36 hours per week, with competitive weekly compensation ranging from $1,425 to $1,471, and a start date aligned with onboarding needs.

Role specifics and benefits: As a Physical Therapy Assistant on this travel assignment, your core responsibilities will include supporting therapists during treatment sessions, assisting with patient positioning and transfers, facilitating gait training and therapeutic exercise programs, and preparing equipment to maximize safety and efficiency. You’ll document patient progress accurately, communicate changes in status to the care team, and reinforce home exercise programs with patients and families to sustain gains after discharge. You’ll have meaningful opportunities for professional growth within the specialty, including refinement of manual techniques, clinical decision-making, and collaboration on care plans that emphasize functional independence. We emphasize competitive benefits, including a potential signing bonus, housing assistance to simplify relocation, and extension opportunities that let you continue making an impact beyond the initial engagement. You’ll receive robust travel support with 24/7 assistance from our dedicated team, credentialing and onboarding resources, and seamless coordination of housing and travel logistics to reduce stress and maximize focus on patient care. The program is designed to empower you to expand your scope, deepen your clinical confidence, and build leadership experiences within the physical therapy field.
Company values: Our organization is built on a foundation of empowerment, collaboration, and continuous growth. We are dedicated to helping our staff advance their careers through clear pathways, mentoring, and access to ongoing education. We foster a supportive, respectful work environment where your contributions are recognized, your well-being is prioritized, and your professional development is a central goal.
