Title: PT vs. PTA

The regulations are avialable online at the state website - professional licensing.(sorry don;t have the link handy). Currently the PTA may only practice if the PT is onsite. There is a move to make a change in the regulations, I am not sure how far the process has gone. Your PT or PTA could contact their state or national association as well if they are members.

Does anyone have the regulations for the role of PT vs PTA in a SNF for PA?  Or, a link to a site where I can find regs?

Thanks in advance,
