Physical Therapy Assistant (PTA)

- Role: Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA)

- Location: Field Based-The Woodlands & surrounding territory

- Schedule: Full-time Monday–Friday

- Compensation (Productivity Points): $58.00 / per point

- Mileage reimbursement Who we are: Adaptive Home Health is building a higher-acuity, patient-centered, skilled home health mode. Our ultimate mission is to dramatically improve patient access to home health care. The PTA role is a core part of that mission: you help restore function, keep patients safe at home, and drive real outcomes — in partnership with a supervising PT. We build technology designed around the way clinicians actually work, so you can spend less time on documentation and coordination, and more time with patients. - Smarter charting: Record or dictate visits with AI Scribe, start with prefilled assessments, extract medication lists from photos, and keep all visit information in one easy-to-use place. - Scheduling that protects your time: Text patients, plan more efficient routes, and stay aligned on visit changes through one clear, coordinated schedule. The result: less administrative burden, fewer coordination headaches, and more time for patient care.

WHAT YOU WILL DO:

- Deliver skilled PTA visits in the home under the supervising PT’s plan of care.

- Execute treatment plans with a focus on functional mobility and measurable progress: gait/balance, transfers, strengthening, functional mobility, home safety, fall prevention.

- Set/track objective progress within PTA scope and communicate updates/concerns to the supervising PT.

- Drive multidisciplinary coordination: escalate changes in condition, align on orders, and keep the care team moving.

- Coach patients and caregivers with practical home programs that actually get done.

- Document promptly and thoroughly

WHY ADAPTIVE

- Operations that back you up: You are supported by an experienced clinical and operational team so you can focus on patient care, not chasing logistics.

- Clear productivity model with upside: You are paid per productivity point/visit (see PTA comp model) with clear expectations.

- Schedule flexibility: We build schedules to make field work sustainable, and we support smart routing and coordination, so your day is predictable whenever possible.

- Cutting-edge tech built for clinicians: Our charting tools are designed to reduce documentation burden, and our scheduling product (launching soon) will streamline visit coordination and reduce last-minute changes.

- Mission-driven work: We are here to expand access to high-quality home health care, and we want clinicians who take pride in raising the standard.
