Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) | Mobile Outpatient
Focused Care Rehab | McKinney, TX | Contract
THE OPPORTUNITY
Are you a PTA who values meaningful patient relationships, professional independence,
and the opportunity to see how therapy improves a patient’s daily life?
Focused Care Rehab is seeking a licensed Physical Therapist Assistant to provide one-
on-one outpatient therapy to older adults in their homes and senior living communities
throughout the McKinney area.
You will treat one patient at a time in the environment where mobility matters most.
Instead of managing several patients in a crowded clinic, you will help each patient work
toward practical goals tied to safety, mobility, confidence, and independence.
ABOUT FOCUSED CARE REHAB
Focused Care Rehab provides physical, occupational, and speech therapy where
patients live.
Our patients receive care in private homes, assisted living communities, and other
senior living settings. This allows our clinicians to address the mobility challenges
patients face in their everyday environments, including walking safely, transferring,
managing steps, reducing fall risk, and participating more fully in daily life.
We believe strong care starts with listening, clear communication, thoughtful treatment,
and respect for each patient’s goals. Our clinicians work independently while remaining
connected to a team that values collaboration, responsiveness, and high professional
standards.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
As a mobile PTA, you will carry out treatment plans established by the supervising
Physical Therapist and help patients improve their strength, mobility, safety, and
independence.
- One-on-One Care: Provide skilled physical therapy interventions, including
therapeutic exercise, gait training, balance activities, transfer training, and functional
mobility.
- Real-World Treatment: Help patients address the specific challenges they face where
they live, such as getting out of a chair, walking to the dining room, managing steps, or
using an assistive device safely.
- Patient and Caregiver Education: Teach home exercise programs, safe mobility
strategies, fall-prevention techniques, and other recommendations established in the
plan of care.
- Clinical Communication: Monitor patient progress and communicate changes in
condition, concerns, and treatment outcomes to the supervising Physical Therapist.
- Collaboration: Coordinate professionally with patients, families, caregivers,
therapists, and senior living staff.
- Documentation: Complete accurate and timely documentation of interventions,
patient response, and progress.
- Independence: Manage your schedule and travel between assigned patient locations
while maintaining consistent communication with the clinical team.
WHO YOU ARE
- You Value Older Adults: You enjoy working with older adults and understand that
progress often requires patience, encouragement, repetition, and respect for the
patient’s goals.
- You Are Dependable: Patients, families, and team members trust you to arrive
prepared, communicate changes, and follow through on your responsibilities.
- You Work Well Independently: You manage your time, travel, and documentation
without needing constant direction.
- You Are a Clear Communicator: You explain treatment in a way patients and
caregivers understand and provide useful, concise updates to the supervising therapist.

response, and you raise concerns when appropriate.
