Description
This course integrates the concepts presented in all simultaneous coursework utilizing cases in a hands-on environment. The learning activities focus on the examinations and interventions for patients across the lifespan including those with orthotic and prosthetic considerations. The clinical cases utilized within the integrated lab are explored further in the concurrent clinical reasoning and decision-making course. Students are expected to integrate their knowledge and skills from previous classes when engaging in the patient/client examination, evaluation, determining a physical therapy diagnosis, prognosis, plan of care, and intervention strategies consistent with evidence-based clinical decision making. Students participate in a clinically-based community learning activity that integrates prior learning during a patient/client experience.
