PTBC (Physical Therapy Board of California) California Law Practice Exam

What is required for a PT facility to be approved for clinical experience?

1. Complete a CSIF form

2. Have a certain number of PTs on staff

3. Provide a specific number of clinical hours weekly

4. Be accredited by a specific organization

The correct answer is: Complete a CSIF form

To be approved for clinical experience, a PT facility needs to complete a CSIF form. This form is used to ensure that the facility meets certain requirements and standards, such as maintaining appropriate equipment and ensuring the safety of patients. While having a certain number of PTs on staff (B) and providing a specific number of clinical hours weekly (C) are important factors, they are not the sole requirements for approval. A facility may also have a certain number of PTs on staff or provide a specific number of clinical hours weekly, but if they do not complete the CSIF form, they will not be approved for clinical experience. Being accredited by a specific organization (D) is also not the correct answer as this may vary depending on the location and regulations of the facility. Thus, completing the CSIF form (A) is the most accurate and necessary answer for a PT facility to be approved
