What tasks are PTAs not qualified to perform?

  1. Interpret physician referrals

  2. Assist in delivery of physical therapy care

  3. Document patient's response to intervention

  4. Respond to patient needs via telecommunication

The correct answer is: Interpret physician referrals

PTAs are not qualified to interpret physician referrals. While they may assist in delivering physical therapy care, document patient's response to interventions, and respond to patient needs via telecommunication, they are not qualified to make clinical judgments or interpretations of medical information. This task should be left to the licensed physical therapist.
