Description
Physical Therapist Assistant - Outpatient - (PTA)
StartDate: ASAP Available Shifts: 8 D/E Pay Rate: $1688.00 - $1740.00
Join a well-established outpatient rehabilitation clinic in Clinton, Maryland, where you will collaborate closely with licensed physical therapists to deliver high-quality, patient-centered care. This role offers the opportunity to grow your skills in an active orthopedic and musculoskeletal setting while being part of a supportive, professional team. Clinton is a welcoming suburban community in Prince George’s County, located just outside Washington, DC. The area offers the best of both worlds: a peaceful, residential feel with quick access to major urban amenities. You are a short drive from the nation’s capital, with its museums, historic monuments, professional sports, and cultural events, as well as close to Joint Base Andrews, local shopping, dining, and entertainment. Nearby parks and recreation areas provide opportunities for walking, biking, and outdoor activities, making it appealing for both individuals and families. In this outpatient PTA position, you will support physical therapists in implementing individualized treatment plans that focus on restoring function, reducing pain, and helping patients achieve meaningful goals. A typical day includes assisting with therapeutic exercise, balance and coordination training, functional mobility, and modalities within your licensed scope, while reinforcing patient education for home exercise programs and self-management. You can expect to work primarily with an orthopedic and sports-related caseload, including post-surgical patients, joint replacements, spine conditions, work-related injuries, and chronic musculoskeletal diagnoses. Depending on clinic volume, patient schedules are structured to allow you to deliver hands-on care while maintaining timely, accurate documentation in the electronic medical record system. Patient ratios are designed to balance productivity expectations with quality time for each individual, and you will work closely with the clinical team to coordinate care and ensure a smooth patient flow throughout the day. The clinic environment is designed to support collaboration and professional growth, with experienced therapists, access to modern equipment, and a culture that encourages continuing education and evidence-based practice. You will be part of a team that values communication and mutual support, offering a strong foundation for both newer PTAs and those with established outpatient experience who want to deepen their skills. Shifts are typically scheduled during daytime and early evening hours on weekdays, aligning with outpatient clinic operations and patient availability. The predictable schedule provides a stable work-life balance while still offering variety in your day through a diverse caseload and dynamic team interactions. This is an excellent opportunity for a Physical Therapist Assistant who enjoys outpatient rehabilitation, is motivated to deliver excellent patient care, and wants to practice in a thriving community close to Washington, DC.
