About the role

Description

Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) | PRN | Summerville


The Village at Summerville | Summerville, South Carolina | In-House Nonprofit


Not all PRN therapy jobs feel the same. Some feel transactional. Some feel disconnected. Some feel like you’re walking into a building simply to cover treatments and chase productivity.


This isn’t one of them.


At The Village at Summerville, you become part of an established in-house therapy team within Presbyterian Communities of South Carolina (PCSC) — a respected nonprofit senior living organization where therapists collaborate closely, patient care comes before quotas, and relationships matter.


Our PRN clinicians are not viewed as “extra coverage.” They are valued members of the team who help support meaningful patient outcomes across the continuum of care.


If you enjoy working with older adults, value flexibility, and want to practice in a supportive clinical environment where quality and teamwork still matter, we would love to connect with you.


Why Therapists Choose This Team

  • In-house nonprofit therapy model 
  • Therapist-directed clinical care 
  • No contract therapy productivity culture 
  • Strong interdisciplinary collaboration 
  • Flexible PRN scheduling 
  • Full continuum of care on one campus 
  • Supportive, team-oriented environment 
  • Opportunities to stay clinically engaged and continue growing      

A Different Kind of Therapy Environment

Many clinicians today are looking for:

  • More meaningful patient interaction 
  • Better collaboration and communication 
  • Greater clinical autonomy 
  • Less pressure around unrealistic productivity expectations 
  • A stronger connection to the residents and community they serve 

That is exactly what our in-house therapy model was designed to support.

At The Village at Summerville, therapy is integrated into the daily life of the community. Clinicians work closely with nursing, physicians, and interdisciplinary leaders to support coordinated, patient-centered care across multiple levels of service.

2. Strong Clinical Exposure

Work with residents recovering from:

  • Orthopedic surgeries 
  • Neurological conditions 
  • Balance and mobility impairments

3. A Welcoming Team Culture

Our therapy department is known for:

  • Strong teamwork 
  • Clinical collaboration 
  • Consistent communication

Even in a PRN role, clinicians remain connected to the team and integrated into department communication and collaboration.


Leadership & Professional Growth

Our Director of Rehabilitation fosters an environment where clinicians are encouraged to:

  • Collaborate openly 
  • Share clinical insight 
  • Continue developing their skills 
  • Take ownership of patient outcomes 
  • Support one another as teammates 

We believe strong clinical teams are built through mentorship, trust, accountability, and shared purpose. The department also participates in student clinical education, creating opportunities to support and mentor future clinicians.
