Physical Therapist Assistant — Outpatient Orthopedics


Skypark Physical Therapy & Rehabilitation
Torrance, CA • Full-time • $36–$42/hour

Experienced PTAs and new graduates welcome


What are you looking for in your first or next PTA role?
Time to finish your notes? A supervising PT who can help you build confidence and work through challenging cases? Opportunities to develop your clinical skills and grow your career? Flexibility when something important comes up outside work?


Whether you’re starting your career or ready for a change, the support around you matters. At Skypark, we build that support into the workday through dedicated documentation time, AI-assisted documentation tools, paid mentorship, and trained aides. Weekly case reviews and continuing education support help you strengthen your clinical reasoning, expand your treatment skills, and pursue your professional interests. As a small, growing practice, we can talk directly about your schedule, your career goals, and how you’d like to contribute as the clinic develops.

What we offer

• $36–$42/hour, based on experience.
• $5,000 student-loan/education benefit, paid in installments over your first two years.
• Health and dental insurance, with 50% employer-paid Blue Shield Gold PPO coverage.
• SIMPLE IRA with a 4% employer match.
• 21 paid days off: 10 PTO days, 5 sick days, and 6 holidays.
• $1,000 annual continuing education stipend plus one paid CE day.
• Clinic-paid PTA license renewal, malpractice coverage, BLS certification, and APTA dues.

Support that makes a difference in your day

• Time for your notes. Documentation time is part of the workday, with AI-assisted tools to help reduce the workload. Our goal is for you to finish your notes before you leave.
• Someone to work through cases with. You’ll have a designated supervising PT and weekly, paid one-on-one case reviews during your first six months, with continued meetings if useful.
• Flexibility you can discuss directly. Have a recurring commitment or an important evening event? We’re open to adjusting start and end times or arranging hours elsewhere in the week, while coordinating patient care and team coverage.
• Help with the work surrounding treatment. Trained aides support clinical flow, while front desk and billing staff handle scheduling, insurance verification, and authorizations.

The role and treatment schedule
Provide individualized outpatient orthopedic care under a supervising PT’s plan of care, communicate patient progress, and maintain timely documentation.

• Monday–Friday, 9 AM–6 PM, with scheduling needs discussed during the interview.
• Target of 14–16 completed visits per day, with a structured 30/60/90-day ramp.
• 45-minute treatment blocks with aide support. Two patients share a start time: one begins with you while the other starts their prescribed exercises with a trained aide, then they switch midway through the visit.

New hires begin with approximately 10–12 visits per day and gradually build toward the target with support along the way.


What you’ll need

• A PTA degree from a CAPTE-accredited program.
• An active California PTA license before beginning licensed patient care. Candidates awaiting licensure are welcome to apply.
• Current BLS/CPR certification.
• Clear communication and a collaborative approach to patient care.

Outpatient orthopedic experience is preferred. New graduates are welcome, and Spanish language skills are helpful.
