Travel Physical Therapy Assistant Job

TLC Healthforce
High Point, NC
Embark on a rewarding journey as a Physical Therapy Assistant in North Carolina, High Point, where your compassion, hands-on skill, and collaborative spirit can transform lives every day. This travel-ready opportunity empowers you to partner with skilled therapists to guide patients through tailored exercises, functional activities, and education that restore independence and confidence. You’ll play a pivotal role in healing and rehabilitation across diverse clinical settings, from outpatient clinics to short-term facilities, helping patients reclaim daily activities, sports participation, and mobility after injury or surgery. As you chart your path in this specialty, you’ll also discover the beauty of North Carolina—from the rolling foothills and lush parks near High Point to the vibrant arts and music scenes across the Piedmont and beyond. Picture weekend trips to nearby Greensboro, Winston-Salem, or Carolina’s scenic byways, and the chance to savor everything from farmers markets to river walks with colleagues who share your dedication to patient-centered care.

Location Benefits: The High Point posting puts you at the hub of a welcoming community with easy access to a wealth of nearby destinations. High Point offers a lower cost of living, straightforward commutes, and a supportive network of healthcare professionals who understand the value of teamwork and mentorship. You’ll enjoy a balance that helps you sustain energy for patient care and professional growth. For those who crave variety, the assignment includes potential opportunities to work in other locations across the United States, opening doors to different clinical environments and patient populations. Whether you’re treating orthopedic rehab in a bustling clinic, aiding post-acute recovery in a skilled nursing facility, or collaborating in a multi-discipline team, you’ll gain exposure to best practices, interprofessional communication, and the chance to refine a broad skill set. And when you’re off the clock, North Carolina’s diverse landscapes—mountain trails, craft breweries, lakes, and coastal escapes within a few hours—offer restorative escapes that recharge your clinical enthusiasm.

Role Specifics and Benefits: In this Physical Therapy Assistant role, you’ll support licensed therapists by implementing patient treatment plans, guiding therapeutic exercises, and facilitating activities that improve strength, range of motion, balance, and functional mobility. You’ll assist with modalities and equipment as directed, monitor responses to therapy, document progress, and communicate observations to the care team to ensure cohesive care. Your professional growth will be supported through access to ongoing education, specialty competencies, and mentorship that empower you to expand your clinical scope within pediatrics, geriatrics, or orthopedics as you choose. This opportunity includes competitive compensation with a weekly pay range of $1,259 to $1,372, reflecting your experience and the responsibilities of your assignment. You’ll receive guaranteed hours of 35 per week, with the start date set for 02/16/2026 and a multi-week commitment that aligns with patient needs and facility schedules. In addition to a competitive base, you may qualify for a sign-on bonus, housing assistance, and contract extensions that allow you to deepen community ties and professional rapport. You’ll benefit from comprehensive support—our 24/7 travel assistance line, credentialing guidance, and a dedicated onboarding team—so you’re never navigating the process alone. Our approach prioritizes reliability, compliance, and patient safety, ensuring you can focus on meaningful care while we take care of logistics, scheduling, and ongoing resources to sustain your effectiveness on the floor.

Company Values: Our organization is built on empowering staff to own their career growth within a supportive, collaborative culture. We value curiosity, compassion, and continuous learning, recognizing that every patient interaction is an opportunity to improve outcomes and deepen clinical expertise. You’ll find mentors who champion evidence-based practice, encourage reflective practice, and celebrate achievements—large and small. The company’s philosophy centers on mutual respect, open communication, and a work environment where hard work meets real appreciation. As a traveling clinician, you’ll join a network that prioritizes your wellbeing, professional development, and the chance to advance within a clear pathway as you demonstrate impact and leadership in patient care.
