Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) Jobs in Suwannee, FL — In-Home
Posted October 2, 2026 · PT Near Me · Contract / PRN / Part-time · Pay $60–70/hr
Suwannee is a small coastal community at the mouth of the Suwannee River in Dixie County, reached by CR 349 from Old Town. Its remoteness is exactly why in-home therapy matters here — patients recovering from a crash or surgery often can't manage long drives for care.
From a Suwannee-area base our PTAs typically cover Old Town, Fanning Springs, Jena, and the coastal communities of Dixie County, with visits grouped by area to keep drive time sensible.
