Under whose supervision does a Physical Therapist Assistant work?

  1. Nursing Supervisor

  2. Physical Therapist

  3. Occupational Therapist

  4. Medical Doctor

The correct answer is: Physical Therapist

A Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) works under the supervision of a Physical Therapist (PT). Option A, a Nursing Supervisor, is an incorrect answer because a PTA does not work under the supervision of a nurse. Option C, an Occupational Therapist, is incorrect because while PTAs and OTs may work collaboratively, they do not work under each other's supervision. Option D, a Medical Doctor, is incorrect because PTAs do not work under the supervision of doctors. It is important for a PTA to follow the guidance and direction of a PT in order to provide the best care for their patients.
