Mid Level
Embark on a rewarding Travel Physical Therapy Assistant journey in the Physical Therapy Assistant specialty, delivering patient‑centered care in Cape May, New Jersey, with a start date of December 15, 2025. Picture yourself guiding therapeutic exercises, gait training, range of motion activities, and modality applications under the mentorship of experienced physical therapists. You’ll collect data, monitor progress, adapt treatments to maximize function, and empower patients to return to daily life with confidence. This travel role challenges you to think creatively, communicate compassionately, and refine your clinical skills across a spectrum of settings, enriching your professional story every week. Across each assignment you’ll witness the tangible impact of your hands‑on care, from helping a patient regain mobility after surgery to supporting an individual in: pain reduction, muscle strengthening, balance, and functional independence. Your presence will foster rehabilitation that extends beyond the clinic, helping families thrive as recovering lives are rekindled by your expertise and dedication.
Cape May offers a unique backdrop for your professional journey. This coastal jewel of southern New Jersey blends seaside serenity with historic charm, inviting you to enjoy scenic beaches, lighthouse views, and charming Victorian architecture after engrossing days of patient care. You’ll experience the benefits of a resort‑region environment, where work‑life balance can feel natural as you unwind along the shore, explore nature trails, or savor fresh seafood with colleagues. The travel model further broadens horizons—if you’re drawn to different climates, patient populations, or care settings, there are opportunities nationwide to expand your professional network, hone versatility, and cultivate a broader toolkit for rehabilitation.
Role specifics and benefits are designed to support your growth and well‑being. As a Travel PTA, you’ll:
- Provide essential support under the supervision of a licensed physical therapist, assisting with plan implementation, gait training, therapeutic exercises, manual techniques, and functional mobility activities tailored to each patient’s goals.
- Perform accurate data collection, progress documentation, and timely communication with the care team to ensure continuity of care and optimal outcomes.
- Collaborate with physicians, nurses, and therapists to adapt treatment plans as patients’ needs evolve, promoting safety and independence during recovery.
- Seize professional growth opportunities across diverse clinical environments, expanding proficiency in pediatrics, geriatrics, ortho rehab, neuro rehab, and outpatient settings.
- Benefit from competitive compensation and a range of supportive amenities, including a sign‑on or completion bonus, housing assistance, and potential extension opportunities to continue your impact beyond the initial assignment.
- Enjoy comprehensive support from a dedicated travel team, including 24/7 assistance while you’re on assignment, ensuring smooth logistics, problem solving, and immediate help when you need it most.
Our company is built on values that empower you to advance your career while maintaining a supportive, collaborative workplace. We invest in your development with ongoing education, mentorship, and opportunities to assume greater responsibilities as you demonstrate clinical excellence and leadership. You’ll join a community that respects your expertise, celebrates your contributions, and prioritizes work‑life balance as you grow within the field of rehabilitation.
If you’re ready to embrace a dynamic role that blends clinical excellence with the adventure of travel, this is an extraordinary opportunity to join a team that values your hands‑on skill, compassion, and professional ambitions. Start a travel PTA chapter in your career that not only advances patient outcomes but also enriches your professional narrative with diverse experiences, meaningful relationships, and a pathway to future leadership.
