Responsibilities of a Physical Therapist Assistant:

  • Implementing patient treatment plans through a variety of techniques such as specific exercises, stretching, balance training, and massage
  • Educating patients on the use of special equipment as part of their treatment plan
  • Preparing the treatment area, cleaning equipment and washing linens
  • Clerical duties such as answering phones, scheduling appointments, tracking patient progress, ordering supplies, and filling out insurance paperwork

Sometimes the hardest part of an injury can be the road to recovery. It’s both emotionally and physically taxing, so having the best possible support team to help a person regain movement and manage pain throughout the recovery process is crucial.

This program is the right fit for students who desire a physically active career working directly with patients. Most Physical Therapist Assistants work in physical therapy clinics, hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, home health care and academia.
