Licensed Physical Therapist Assistant

About myPlace Health

myPlace Health was founded in 2021 by mission-aligned healthcare leaders and organizations that are committed to drastically improving health outcomes, quality and experience for vulnerable older adults and frail seniors. We specialize in providing value-based, comprehensive care and coverage for older adults with significant needs so they can thrive in the homes they love and in the communities they cherish. 

Our mission is simple: to enable older adults to live the independent lives they deserve. We pursue this mission through our myPlace PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) model, which provides seamless primary care, integrated health plan coverage, personalized social engagement, and customized services delivered in the participant’s preferred place.  

myPlace Health is building a mission-driven team that shares our passion for redefining the way older adults experience care as they “age in place” in the community. This is a unique opportunity to take on one of our country’s most challenging healthcare problems and join a fast-growing, dynamic team as we prepare to scale our mission to serve more markets. 

About This Role

As a Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) in our PACE program, you’ll play a vital role in helping older adults maintain their independence, mobility, and overall well-being. Working under the guidance of a Physical Therapist and as a valued member of our Interdisciplinary Team (IDT), you’ll bring therapeutic care to life—delivering compassionate, hands-on support tailored to each participant’s unique goals.

This is more than a clinical role—it’s an opportunity to truly connect. You'll build meaningful relationships, support whole-person care, and make a lasting difference in the lives of frail seniors. Whether you're helping a participant walk more confidently, recover from a hospitalization, or simply stay active and engaged, your care will be essential to their ability to thrive at home and in the community they love.

If you find joy in helping others move forward—literally and figuratively—and you're inspired by mission-driven work in a collaborative, supportive environment, we’d love to welcome you to the team.
