The PTA uses their knowledge and skills to help the physical therapist provide selected interventions as described in the patient's plan of care. The PTA uses their clinical problem solving skills to ensure patient/client safety and comfort, as well as completion of interventions selected to achieve the patient's desired outcomes and goals.

PTA's demonstrate effective communication and strong interpersonal skills to motivate patients and provide compassionate care.
