Job Description

FOX Rehabilitation is seeking a compassionate and motivated Physical Therapy Assistant to join our clinician-owned and operated private practice specializing in geriatric rehabilitation. In this role, you will work under the direction and supervision of a licensed Physical Therapist to deliver evidence-based, hands-on therapeutic interventions that help older adults improve mobility, function, safety, and overall quality of life. As part of the Healthcare & Medical Services team, you will provide one-on-one treatment focused on functional outcomes, such as strength, balance, gait, transfers, endurance, and fall prevention. You will be responsible for implementing individualized plans of care, guiding patients through therapeutic exercises and activities, and utilizing appropriate assistive devices and adaptive equipment. You will monitor and document patient progress using electronic medical records, report changes in condition to the supervising Physical Therapist, and assist in adjusting treatment plans to ensure optimal clinical outcomes. Education is a key component of this position; you will instruct patients and caregivers in home exercise programs, safety techniques, and strategies to maximize independence in daily activities. This role is highly interactive and patient-centered, requiring excellent communication skills, professionalism, and empathy when working with older adults and their families. You will collaborate closely with an interdisciplinary healthcare team, including physical therapists, occupational therapists, physicians, nurses, and other clinicians, to support coordinated and comprehensive care. You will also uphold all regulatory, ethical, and organizational standards, adhering to infection control, safety protocols, and documentation requirements. At FOX Rehabilitation, you will be part of a culture that emphasizes respect, clinical excellence, and continuous professional growth. You can expect a dynamic, field-based work environment that may include care provided in clinics, senior living communities, or patient homes, depending on assignment. FOX Rehabilitation is committed to exceeding client expectations and supporting staff development through mentoring, ongoing education, and opportunities to expand clinical skills in geriatric care. This position is ideal for a Physical Therapy Assistant who is eager to build strong relationships with older adult patients, practice at the top of their license, and contribute to a collaborative team dedicated to improving functional outcomes and quality of life.
