Neuromuscular III

Catalog description

Through cases, video demonstrations, labs, patient experiences, and active learning assignments, students continue to advance their clinical reasoning and clinical skills in neurologic patient management. Students further enhance clinical reasoning, use of practice guidelines, and psychomotor skills related to patients with neuromuscular dysfunction with an emphasis on greater complexity of care. Progression across the continuum of care and managing varying levels of acuity is emphasized for patients across the lifespan, as is practice across healthcare settings. Lab sessions include understanding the physical therapist’s role in coordination and collaboration with interprofessional teams. Opportunities to work with assistive/adaptive/ orthotic devices and collaborate with community partners is facilitated. Emerging evidence in neurologic rehab is applied to patient management decision making.
