DPT 706 - Clinical Seminar V

[1 credit(s)]
Prerequisites: Completion of Summer semester, Year II or permission of the instructor. The clinical seminar course series facilitates the integration of students into the profession of physical therapy through discussion of various professional topics and engagement in clinical lab activities. Clinical Seminar V focuses on preparing students for their intermediate full-time clinical education experiences. Reflection on students’ initial clinical experiences will be utilized to guide students to adapt and optimize learning in remaining clinical education courses in the DPT curriculum. Topics will include: quality instruction and student engagement, handling of ethical issues in the clinic, and expectations for intermediate clinical experiences. Reflection on professional interests will lead to preparation of a clinical preference plan and matching to remaining full-time clinical experiences. Students will continue to participate in clinical lab hours that are integrated with didactic coursework. These activities will explore the role of the physical therapist with increasingly more complex patients/clients and environments. Development of positive relationships with both support personnel and the interprofessional team will also be emphasized through clinical activities.
