What is the ratio of PTs to PTAs allowed under supervision?

  1. 1 PT: 2 PTAs

  2. 1 PT: 1 PTA

  3. 1 PT: 4 PTAs

  4. Unlimited as long as adequate supervision is provided

The correct answer is: 1 PT: 2 PTAs

Different states may have varying requirements for the number of PTAs a PT can supervise. In general, the standard ratio is 1 PT to 2 PTAs under supervision. This allows for effective and safe supervision for both the PT and the PTAs. Option B is incorrect as it would mean a 11 ratio, which could potentially be too much for one PT to handle. Option C is also incorrect as it would mean a larger number of PTAs to be supervised by one PT, which may not allow for adequate attention and guidance. Option D may seem plausible, but it's important to note that while the number of PTAs may not be explicitly limited, the PT must still be able to provide appropriate and necessary supervision. Therefore, the correct answer is A: 1 PT to 2 PTAs.
