We're looking for an enthusiastic, compassionate PTA to join our Woodlands clinic, one of five Breathing Center of Houston locations across the greater Houston area. You'll work directly with patients in a specialized outpatient cardiopulmonary rehab setting, helping individuals with COPD, pulmonary fibrosis, asthma, long COVID, deconditioning, cardiovascular limitations, and pre/post lung transplant recovery improve endurance, mobility, and quality of life. This is not a high-volume, assembly-line caseload. You'll spend real time with each patient, track meaningful progress, and work in a structured outpatient environment where clinical quality comes first. WHY PTAsLOVE WORKING HERE
Monday-Friday Schedule:
No nights, no weekends, no on-call. Your evenings and weekends are yours.Manageable Caseloads:

Build a niche skill set in cardiopulmonary rehab that sets your resume apart from day one.Optional Growth Opportunities:

You'll work directly with patients in a one-on-one outpatient setting, guiding them through individualized exercise programs, endurance training, breathing strategies, functional mobility, and education to help them manage their conditions and regain independence. You'll monitor vitals, track progress through our electronic medical records system, and collaborate closely with supervising PTs and referring physicians to optimize patient outcomes. Every patient who walks through our doors is working toward something, climbing stairs without stopping, walking farther with confidence, returning to daily life, or reducing limitations from chronic cardiopulmonary disease. You'll be the person who helps them get there.WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- Licensed Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) in the state of Texas, or eligible for licensure.
- New graduates are encouraged to apply, we'll invest in your development from day one.
- Comfortable with electronic medical records and outpatient clinical workflows.
