Our ultimate mission is to **dramatically improve patient access to home health care.** The PTA role supports that mission by delivering safe, reliable skilled care in the home within PTA scope — with excellent communication and escalation to the RN/clinical team so patients stay safe and on track. 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 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. ### Requirements **Must-haves** - Active **Texas PTA license** (in good standing) - Strong clinical judgment and comfort working independently in the field (within PTA scope and under PT supervision) - Comfortable escalating changes in condition to PT/RN/MD and documenting rationale clearly - Strong communication and documentation - Reliable follow-through on treatment plans, visit cadence, and patient goals - Current driver’s license and comfort with daily travel across assigned territory - Able to carry/transport basic therapy equipment as needed - Competency in core home health PTA scope - Safety-first mobility work: transfers, gait training, balance/fall prevention, assistive device education - Strengthening, functional mobility, and home safety assessment/modification education - Patient/caregiver coaching with practical home programs **Nice-to-haves** - Prior **home health** experience - **Homecare Homebase (HCHB)** experience (or similar home health EMR) - Deeper clinical experience in high-signal ortho/neuro populations - Strong organization and time management
