Practice Supervisors must hold an Independent Practice Certificate of Registration in Ontario and must have held it for the last three years.
They cannot be related or closely associated with the Physiotherapy Resident (for example, a spouse, family member, or business partner).
Physiotherapy Residents are allowed to have more than one Practice Supervisor.
Supervisors may not supervise more than three Physiotherapy Residents at one time.
When the College considers a proposed Practice Supervisor, it takes that person’s history with the College into account. For example, the College will note whether the proposed Practice Supervisor:
- is the subject of an investigation
- is involved in remedial activities directed by the College
- has a history of practice concerns
