Radium is usually inserted in the vagina of those patients who have cancer of the cervix as part of their treatment. When a nurse want to remove such radium, she must have at her disposal a piece of forceps for carrying out the removal. Long handled forceps should be used because distance helps to limit exposure to the radioactive element.
After the removal, the nurse should assess the patient for pain reaction.

I think this a tough question, and I hesitated between a) and b), but I choose the second answer - Physical Therapist.

Physical Therapists are licensed providers of care, and their educational education has evolved to the point where physical therapists graduate with a doctorate in physcal therapy. Personal trainers have a degree or a certificate. This is not the same.
