PHYSICAL THERAPY AIDES

At Balance Physical Therapy^® and Human Performance Center, Inc., physical therapy aides are an integral part of our team. They help to bridge the gap between therapists and patients in the areas of exercise instruction/supervision, modality application, and patient flow in the clinic. A physical therapy aide is expected to be able to multitask in the areas of patient supervision/instruction, schedule-keeping (insofar as keeping a patient on task is concerned), clinic cleaning (tables, stools, equipment, etc.), laundry washing and folding, and alerting the therapists to reported changes in the patient’s condition. In addition, helping to maintain clinic inventory by alerting management to supply needs is of utmost importance. Although most of our aides are people interested in eventually going to graduate school to become physical therpapists, some are already Certified Athletic Trainers, Certified Personal Trainers, Certified Massage Practitioners, and some hold Master's Degrees in Exercise Science and other areas.Formal education as noted above is NOT required to become a physical therapy aide, but if you have a passion for helping people, want to learn a lot about human anatomy, manual therapy, and exercise intervention, then our clinics are the place for you!

Our physical therapy aides are indispensible to us, however, it needs to be made clear that we are a highly professional organization, and under no circumstances does an aide ever progress a patient, treat a patient with manual therapy techniques, or otherwise touch a patient except for instructional purposes as it relates to exercise. All patient progression in our clinics is performed only by licensed doctors of physical therapy, or with their exclusive direction and permission.

STUDENTS

Frequently, we take on high school and junior college students as volunteers in the clinic. In fact, two of our most successful physical therapy aides grew out of this program in our clinic. You will have an opportunity to work alongside highly skilled physical therapists, interact with patients on a daily basis, and learn more than you ever imagined about human anatomy, biomechanics, and exercise therapies. In addition, if you are a physical therapy graduate student and are looking for a clinical affiliation site, we are happy to accommodate you in the capacity of a host facility with top-notch clinical instructors. Please send an e-mail inquiry if interested, as we are strongly affiliated with USC and student rotation availabilities fill up quickly.
