Travel Physical Therapy Assistant Job
Job Description
Job DescriptionEmbark on a meaningful journey as a Travel Physical Therapy Assistant, specializing in Physical Therapy Assistant care, with an exciting opportunity in Littleton, New Hampshire, and the chance to serve clinics and communities across the United States. In this role, your clinical expertise will empower patients to regain mobility, restore independence, and reclaim the activities they love. You’ll collaborate with dedicated therapists, physicians, and care teams to implement evidence-based plans, measure patient progress, and adjust interventions to optimize outcomes. This is more than a paycheck—it's a chance to apply your skills in diverse settings, learn from a broad network of professionals, and leave a lasting positive impact on every patient you touch. Your start date is 03/16/2026, and the assignments are built for flexibility, typically spanning several weeks per rotation, with opportunities to extend based on performance, program needs, and patient demand. If you thrive in dynamic environments, enjoy problem solving, and are passionate about patient empowerment, this is the pathway to accelerate your growth while delivering compassionate care.
New Hampshire’s natural beauty and the charm of Littleton offer a backdrop that inspires both professional focus and personal well-being. Littleton sits near the scenic White Mountains, where fall colors paint the landscape in vibrant hues, and outdoor adventures—from hiking and skiing to tranquil canal strolls—are just steps from the door. Separately, New Hampshire reveals a spectrum of experiences—from historic towns and thriving arts scenes to farm-to-table dining and welcoming communities. This setting isn’t just a place to work; it’s a place to recharge between patient visits, pursue ongoing education, and explore local culture. For PTA professionals who enjoy a balance of meaningful clinical work and outdoor recreation, Littleton provides a supportive home base with easy access to larger cities for weekend getaways, facilitating a well-rounded lifestyle during a traveling assignment.
Location benefits extend beyond the scenery. Working in Littleton, NH offers the advantages of a close-knit community, streamlined scheduling, and the chance to collaborate with multidisciplinary teams focused on restoring function and improving quality of life. You’ll experience a patient population with diverse needs, from post-acute rehabilitation to outpatient therapy, enabling you to refine gait training, balance, strengthening, and functional mobility interventions. The role also opens doors to global experiences within the U.S.—you may rotate through different clinics and settings, gaining exposure to pediatric, adult, and geriatric populations, varied payer mixes, and unique clinical protocols. The travel framework is designed to support your learning trajectory: structured onboarding, orientation to each facility, and ongoing access to advanced modalities and documentation systems that heighten your clinical reasoning and time-management skills. Across locations, you’ll benefit from a consistent, supportive backbone that helps you adapt quickly while maintaining the high standard of care you expect.
Role specifics and benefits are tailored to empower your professional growth and enhance your overall experience. As a Physical Therapy Assistant on assignment, you’ll perform patient screenings, assist therapists with evaluation and treatment planning, implement individualized therapeutic interventions, and document progress in electronic health records with accuracy and attention to detail. You’ll guide patients through therapeutic exercises, gait training, transfers, and ADLs, while monitoring safety, progression, and response to treatment. You’ll educate patients and families about home exercise programs, precautions, and return-to-function goals, ensuring clear communication across the care team. Collaboration with PTs, nurses, and case managers will be central to coordinating care plans, discharge planning, and community reintegration. This role is designed for growth: you’ll have opportunities for mentorship, continuing education, and skill expansion in modalities and assistive technologies. Competitive compensation accompanies your commitment, including a sign-on bonus and housing assistance to ease relocation and travel logistics. Extension opportunities allow you to continue building your repertoire across varied clinical environments, amplifying your resume and professional confidence. In addition, you’ll enjoy 24/7 support from a dedicated travel operations team, ready to assist with scheduling changes, travel logistics, or any clinical needs that arise on the road. The combination of hands-on practice, cross-site learning, and robust support creates an ideal platform for advancing as a PTA while delivering high-quality patient care.
Our company values are rooted in empowering you to grow, thrive, and lead with confidence. We are committed to fostering a culture that recognizes your contributions, respects your professional judgment, and prioritizes a supportive, collaborative work environment. You’ll find clear avenues for career advancement, constructive feedback, and a network of peers and leaders who invest in your development.

The dedication to your success extends to comprehensive onboarding, ongoing education stipends, and access to experienced mentors who share best practices in patient care and clinical reasoning. When you join us, you’re joining a community that values your expertise and your well-being, with a roadmap to elevated practice and meaningful impact.
