What should PTA indicate in the patient record?

  1. Date & nature of service provided

  2. Color of the patient's shirt

  3. Patient's favorite meal

  4. List of unrelated care services

The correct answer is: Date & nature of service provided

PTA should indicate the date and nature of service provided in the patient record because this information is essential for tracking the patient's medical history and understanding their current health status. Options B and C are incorrect because they do not pertain to the patient's medical care and are not relevant for medical record-keeping. Option D is also incorrect because it is asking for a list of unrelated care services, which would not be helpful in understanding the patient's condition. By documenting the date and nature of service provided, PTA can ensure accuracy and continuity of care for the patient.
