Physical Therapy Assisting Highlights
Physical Therapy Assisting programs provide training in helping patients recover from injuries and improve mobility under the supervision of licensed physical therapists. These programs cover areas such as anatomy, therapeutic exercises, patient care techniques, and rehabilitation protocols. Students gain hands-on experience through clinical fieldwork, preparing them for roles as physical therapist assistants (PTAs) in hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and outpatient clinics, where they help patients regain strength and function.
