Adaptive Home Health·Cleveland, Texas
The Physical Therapist Assistant is responsible for delivering comprehensive physical therapy treatment within the patient's home, ensuring all skilled documentation is completed accurately using Homecare Homebase. This includes providing services as ordered in the plan of care and effectively communicating with physicians, supervising therapists, and the interdisciplinary team.
Role: Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) Adaptive Home Health is building a higher-acuity, patient-centered, skilled home health model across Texas. Our 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 also build technology to support field clinicians. Our charting product reduces documentation burden, and our scheduling product (launching soon) will make routing and visit coordination easier — protecting your time. 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 in Homecare Homebase (HCHB) — defensible, efficient, and consistent. 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.
