Currently we offer an Associate in Applied Science degree in Physical Therapist Assistant.
The field of Physical Therapy is constantly changing and growing. What I love best about the profession is the diversity in clinical settings (hospital, schools, long term care, out-patient clinics and wellness centers to name a few), interventions we use in a treatment plan (exercise; modalities such as water, electricity and sound; and rehabilitation techniques)and the individuals we serve (aged birth to 100 years +)
