Physical Therapy Aide Information Session Wednesday, February 5, 6 - 7 pm, City Tech Continuing Studies Center
Are you an energetic person who loves helping others? Consider a job as a Physical Therapy Aide.
Physical Therapy Aides, sometimes called Rehabilitation Aides, are entry-level positions that mirror an emerging trend in healthcare delivery where support services are provided under the supervision of licensed professionals. They are employed in private physical therapy practices, chiropractic offices, long term healthcare facilities, and hospitals.
An aging population with improved survival from heart attacks, strokes, and trauma as well as improved survival rates from birth injuries and severe disabilities will create added demand for PT Aides. Career ladder opportunities exist with collegiate study leading to licensure, both on the associate and advanced-degree levels.
Prerequisite: HS Diploma or GED.
