Home health PTA positions across Las Cruces, Sunland Park, Santa Teresa, Anthony, Vado, and Chaparral — $45–$50 per visit, 1099 PRN, fast direct deposit. New Mexico PTA license required. Bilingual Spanish/English a plus.
Quick Answer
Transmountain Therapy is hiring Physical Therapist Assistants (PTAs) in Las Cruces, New Mexico and the Southern NM border region for 1099 PRN home health work. PTAs earn $45–$50 per visit (same rates as our El Paso, TX coverage) and typically take 20–30 visits per week at full pace — putting weekly earnings between $900–$1,500 before taxes. Application-to-first-visit timeline is 3–7 business days for credentialed PTAs. Coverage includes Las Cruces, Sunland Park, Santa Teresa, Anthony, Vado, and Chaparral. A New Mexico PTA license is required — New Mexico is not issuing PT Compact privileges, so Texas-only PTAs can start with our El Paso PTA work while they get licensed. Bilingual Spanish/English helpful, not required. Apply at transmountaintherapy.com/pta-jobs-las-cruces-nm.
The Role
If you're an NM-licensed PTA (or a Texas PTA getting your New Mexico license), Transmountain Therapy is actively building out the Las Cruces and Southern NM border region. Same rate structure, same flexible 1099 schedule, same fast direct deposit as our El Paso work — with the added advantage of a much less crowded market and steady contract volume.
NM Licensure
New Mexico is not issuing PT Compact privileges, so a Texas PTA license alone doesn't allow you to treat patients in New Mexico. If you're Texas-licensed, we can still get you working while you apply.
Where you'll work
