About The Role

Licensed Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) - Home Health

  • Schedule: Full-time Monday–Friday + occasional weekends (as needed)
  • Location: Field Based (Houston pod)
  • Compensation (Productivity Points): $58.00 per point

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.
  • 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 with clear expectations. 30 points per week is full-time.
  • 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 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.
