Who may supervise a PTA student?

  1. A PT or PTA with onsite PT supervision

  2. A PT only

  3. A PT or PTA with "adequate" PT supervision

  4. A PT or PTA with close proximity PT supervision

The correct answer is: A PT or PTA with onsite PT supervision

A PTA student must always have a PT or PTA with onsite PT supervision, as this ensures that the student is supervised by a licensed professional who can provide immediate guidance and support. Option B, a PT only, would not provide the necessary guidance and support from a PTA's perspective. Option C, a PT or PTA with "adequate" PT supervision, is vague and could potentially lead to inadequate supervision. Option D, a PT or PTA with close proximity PT supervision, does not ensure that the student is supervised at all times, which is necessary for the student's safety and learning experience.
