“I am so pleased that we can bring the high-quality program we established in Phoenix to the southern part of the state and the Tucson community,” said Jane Jackson, the Physical Therapist Assistant Program Director. “I look forward to offering our hands on, individual, student-centered approach to transform students into amazing Physical Therapist Assistants. Together, we can help bridge the gap to reduce Arizona’s labor shortage for medical professionals.”

Aspiring healthcare students in Tucson can become Brookline graduates in one of several programs: Surgical Technology, Sterile Processing, Medical Assisting, Phlebotomy Technician, and Occupational Therapy Assistant. Now, they can also enroll in a Physical Therapist Assistant program. All students benefit from a dynamic and modern learning environment, which includes applied training, hands-on exercises, and clinical simulations. Brookline College also offers a free, “Class Pass” program that provides aspiring students with a preview of life on campus.

“Physical Therapist Assistants are important members of the healthcare team, which is why I am so proud and excited to be a part of this program launch!” said Rieko Decker, the Campus Director in Tucson. “It is our mission to meet the healthcare education needs of the Tucson community. With our existing lineup of healthcare programs, the addition of PTA allows us to continue that focus.”
