DPT 603 - Basic Interactions[2 credit(s)]
Prerequisites: Admission to the DPT Program with completion of spring Year I or permission of the instructor. This course prepares students to develop basic interaction skills utilized by physical therapists to communicate with individuals, families and other healthcare providers. This includes verbal, non-verbal and professional written communications. Students will first seek to understand themselves and their values, and how this could impact their interactions with individuals whose values may differ. Issues that can influence interactions with pt/clients will be covered, including health disparities, health literacy, disability, cultural and individual differences. Students will develop skills in mindfulness, the ability to give and receive feedback, manage conflict and demonstrate assertiveness. At the culmination of this course, students will be able to complete a thorough patient interview.
