What they do

Physical Therapist Assistants (PTAs) in Florida deliver hands-on treatment under the supervision and direction of a licensed Physical Therapist. They guide patients through therapeutic exercises, apply modalities such as heat, cold, ultrasound, and electrical stimulation, assist with manual therapy techniques, train patients in the use of mobility devices, and document progress toward goals set by the supervising PT. PTAs also reinforce home programs, encourage patients during demanding rehabilitation, and report observations on changes in patient status.

PTAs work in hospitals, outpatient clinics, skilled nursing facilities, home health, pediatric settings, and sports medicine practices across Florida. They are central to the productivity of the rehabilitation team because they enable physical therapists to manage more patients while ensuring that each receives appropriate supervised care. PTAs commonly pursue advanced certifications in orthopedics, geriatrics, or pediatrics, and many use the role as a stepping stone toward an eventual DPT degree.

Licensing in Florida

To practice in Florida, PTA candidates must complete a CAPTE-accredited associate-degree program, pass the National Physical Therapy Examination for PTAs (NPTE-PTA), and complete the Florida Laws and Rules examination. Applicants submit fingerprints and education verification. Licenses are renewed every two years with documented continuing education, including state-mandated topics. The Florida Board of Physical Therapy Practice oversees licensure, scope-of-practice, and disciplinary matters for PTAs.

How to verify or report

Verify a Florida PTA license through the Florida MQA license search. To report unsupervised practice, unsafe interventions, or unprofessional conduct, file through the Florida Department of Health complaint form or by phone at 850-488-0796.
