HealthPro Heritage has a great Licensed Physical Therapist Assistant (LPTA) Opportunity.

Need: Full-time

Setting: Long-term care

Location: Village of St. Edwards

Range: $29-$36/hr based on years of experience

🌟 1. Work in a rehabilitation and nursing care environment

The Village of St. Edward provides a range of care services including post‑acute rehabilitation and nursing care, where physical therapy is part of the core service offerings alongside occupational and speech therapy. This means PTAs can work directly with patients who need rehabilitation after injuries, surgeries, or illnesses.

🙌 2. Focus on personalized, holistic care

Because it’s a continuing care retirement community (CCRC) serving seniors in independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing, PTAs have the opportunity to work with a diverse patient population — helping people maintain mobility, improve function, and enhance quality of life.

💛 3. Mission‑driven, compassionate work culture

The Village is a non‑profit, faith‑based organization that emphasizes a compassionate, community‑oriented environment. Their mission focuses on dignity, respect, and belonging for residents — which can be rewarding work for clinicians who value patient‑centered care.

⚕️ 4. Opportunities for professional growth

The careers page highlights developmental training opportunities, career advancement, continuing education (CEU) support, tuition/certification reimbursement, and employee programs — all of which are good for PTAs who want to grow professionally or expand their skills.

👥 5. Strong team environment

The Village actively markets a welcoming work environment with low patient‑to‑staff ratios and recognition programs that can help foster teamwork and a supportive daily experience.

📈 6. Stable employer with benefits

Being a large organization with multiple campuses and a long history of service (over 50+ years) means more stability and often benefits like medical/dental/vision coverage, PTO, retirement plans (403b), and other employee perks — valuable when choosing a long‑term workplace.

In summary: A PTA might choose to work at The Village of St. Edward because it offers meaningful, patient‑focused rehabilitation work within a supportive, mission‑driven environment that values professional growth and provides solid benefits — especially in the field of senior care and long‑term rehabilitation.
