At AdvantageCare Rehabilitation, we're looking for a compassionate, motivated PRN Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) to join our rehabilitation team at Messiah Lifeways in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania.

Whether you're an experienced PTA looking to supplement your income, a newer clinician interested in expanding your experience, or someone seeking flexible hours without the commitment of a traditional full-time schedule, we'd love to connect!

We know your time is valuable, and finding the right PRN opportunity should mean more than simply picking up additional shifts.

It should mean joining a team where your skills are appreciated, your contributions matter, and the care you provide makes a real difference.

Already working full-time? Looking to pick up additional hours while maintaining a schedule that works for your lifestyle?

Our PRN opportunities allow you to explore additional work based on your availability and the facility's coverage needs.

Whether you're balancing another position, family responsibilities, or simply prefer the flexibility of PRN employment, we'd love to learn what you're looking for.

Located in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, Messiah Lifeways is a well-established senior living community dedicated to supporting older adults through a continuum of care, wellness, and rehabilitation services.

As part of our rehabilitation team, you'll have the opportunity to work with residents who depend on skilled therapy services to improve mobility, regain strength, restore function, and maintain independence.

From helping someone regain confidence after a hospitalization to celebrating their progress toward walking independently, you'll be part of the moments that truly matter.

AdvantageCare Rehabilitation was founded by therapists who understand the importance of clinical collaboration, professional respect, and quality patient care.

You'll work under the direction and supervision of a Physical Therapist while contributing your skills and expertise to individualized treatment plans.

Even when you're working PRN, you deserve to feel like a valued member of the team.

We strive to create a collaborative environment where communication, teamwork, and exceptional patient care come first.

Whether you're joining us for occasional coverage or picking up additional shifts when available, we want you to feel supported and appreciated.
