Question: 1 / 50

What is required for PT schools in regard to supervision?

Weekly supervision meetings

No supervision is required

Onsite supervision by a PT or PTA under a PT's supervision

PT schools require onsite supervision by a licensed physical therapist (PT) or physical therapist assistant (PTA) under the supervision of a licensed PT. This is necessary to ensure that students are receiving appropriate guidance and feedback while they are learning and practicing their skills. Option A (weekly supervision meetings) may not provide adequate supervision for students, as it does not require an on-site presence and does not specify who should be providing the supervision. Option B (no supervision required) is incorrect as it is important for students to have supervision during their clinical experiences. Option D (monthly evaluations by an external PT) may not provide enough frequent and consistent supervision for students. Therefore, option C is the most appropriate answer as it follows the guidelines and requirements set by PT schools.
