PHTH 854 - Integrated Clinical Cases II (2)

The second in a series of two courses designed to integrate patient/client body systems, age groups, cultural characteristics, settings, and physical therapist roles using a case-based approach. Cases present students with increasingly complex scenarios requiring critical thinking and clinical decision making. A variety of approaches, including but not limited to group discussion, patient/client demonstrations, panel presentations, and role playing are used to ensure realistic scenarios for problem solving. Additionally, in this course, scenarios require students to consider roles of the therapist, appropriate delegation or referral to other team members, and variables in the healthcare system to problem solve.
