The difference in school requirements, salary, and roles/duties between a physical therapy assistant vs a physical therapy aide.
There is a huge difference in schooling. PTA's require at least 2 years of education/an associates degree, along with passing a licensing exam. But an aide only requires a high school diploma
Salary for PTA is about 50k and an aide is about 20k
The main difference in role differences is that a PTA is allowed to treat a patient and an aide is not. However, this may differ from state to state
