Who is allowed to use the initials 'P.T.'?

  1. Any healthcare worker

  2. A licensed Physical Therapist

  3. Physical Therapy aides

  4. Patients receiving physical therapy

The correct answer is: A licensed Physical Therapist

A licensed Physical Therapist is the only healthcare worker allowed to use the initials 'P.T.'. While other healthcare workers may assist in physical therapy treatments, only licensed Physical Therapists are qualified to use this title. Physical Therapy aides, although a part of the physical therapy team, do not have the required education or licensure to use the initials 'P.T.'. Patients receiving physical therapy are not allowed to use these initials as they refer to a healthcare professional's title.
