Pros
If you really like doing manuals, this is the place for you. They provide about 20 min manuals to each patient. Your schedule will be in a 20 min interval. Shift offered is usually 3 10 hour shifts and 2 5 hour shifts. The clinic looks like a gym and you can use the facilities for personal use after hours. If you are into sports therapy, it can be a stepping stone to learn. They provide medical.
Cons
Depending on what you prefer, 20 min manuals can be exhausting. They separate the PTAs from 2 task- "Manual PTAs" and Gym PTAs." If you're a PT, you are never assigned to work the "gym." If you do manuals as a PTA, you don't do their excercise for the day and vise versa. Since it is in a 20 min intervals, you can see close to 20 patients at the same time if you are assigned to the "gym" as they would schedule 4-6 patients every 20 mins. Patients would just walk in without being called and is expected to be independent with their workouts. That helps out if they're independent, but the quality of care on the "gym" side of therapy is lacking as it is very difficult to keep up with close to 20 people in an hour. There are only 2 PTAs on the "gym" side versus 5 "manual" therapists. You are in salary position but they will still schedule patients at the time you are suppose to be done with work. For example- I worked 7a-6pm. A 10 hour shift with 1 hour lunch break, but patients are scheduled at 5:40p and 6pm which forces you to stay after hours. Keep in mind that it is a salary position, so you are not paid for over-time. There is no 401k matching.
