Health Conditions in Function and Disability

Catalog description

To function within the health care system, health providers must be able to articulate their profession’s concept of health within the context of medical management of common health conditions. Students learn how to search the World Wide Web to locate instructional resources and to gather clinically related evidence to solve problems. In this process, they learn about the underlying pathophysiology, diagnostic, and treatment procedures, while collaborating with other students in completion of online and face-to-face assignments. As students examine the internal and external factors that impact human health, they can learn about the care of common health conditions and roles of various practitioners.
