PHTR 701 - Advanced Clinical Experience I

Credit(s): 5
Prerequisite(s): Successful completion of all prior physical therapy coursework in the curriculum sequence.
This is a 12-week full-time clinical experience performed after the spring semester of the final year. To participate in this clinical experience, students must satisfactorily complete all course work in the program. In order to expose the student to a breadth of physical therapy experiences, this affiliation will be completed in a setting that is different from the Basic Clinical Education experience. Since students have completed all coursework, they are expected to perform at the advanced intermediate level on the clinical assessment form in any setting including acute care hospital, long-term care/subacute/rehab, outpatient, or orthopedic setting.
