This is an outpatient Physical Therapy Assistant opportunity in Macon, Georgia, offering a 13-week temp-direct assignment in a supportive and professional clinical environment. The position is ideal for candidates who enjoy working in general orthopedics and want to further develop their skills in an engaging outpatient setting. Macon is a lively Central Georgia city known for its rich music history, beautiful historic architecture, and welcoming Southern hospitality. The city hosts popular events and festivals throughout the year, offers numerous parks and trails, and features a growing downtown with local restaurants, coffee shops, and arts venues. With an easy drive to Atlanta and other regional attractions, Macon combines small-city comfort with convenient access to larger metropolitan amenities. The cost of living is generally lower than many larger cities, making it an appealing place to live and work during your assignment. In this role, you will provide outpatient physical therapy services under the direction and supervision of a licensed Physical Therapist. You will primarily work with general orthopedic patients, including individuals recovering from injuries, surgeries, and chronic musculoskeletal conditions. A typical day involves assisting with evaluations and re-assessments, implementing established treatment plans, guiding therapeutic exercise programs, performing appropriate modalities as delegated, and educating patients on home exercise programs and strategies to improve function and prevent re-injury. You can expect a consistent outpatient caseload and a schedule built around 8-hour day shifts, with an anticipated 20 hours per week, supporting a healthy work-life balance. The environment is designed to be patient-centered and team-oriented, with opportunities to collaborate closely with Physical Therapists and other staff to deliver high-quality care. This setting offers the chance to strengthen your clinical skills in orthopedics, gain additional outpatient experience, and work in a community that values accessible, quality rehabilitation services. This assignment can be a strong addition to your resume, showcasing outpatient general orthopedics experience in a reputable clinical setting, while allowing you to experience the culture, history, and lifestyle that Macon and the surrounding region have to offer.
