PHTR 702 - Advanced Clinical Experience II

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 in the fall of the final year. To participate in this clinical experience students must satisfactorily complete all course work in the program and successfully completed BCE and ACEI. In order to expose the student to a breadth of physical therapy experiences, this affiliation will be completed in a setting that is different than the Advanced Clinical Experience I. The setting may be a specialty setting or students may return to a similar setting to that of BCE to gain more in-depth experience in a particular area of practice. Since students have completed all course work and this is their final clinical experience they are expected to perform at the entry level on the clinical assessment tool by the end of this experience in any setting including: acute care hospital, long term care/subacute/rehab, outpatient, orthopedic or any specialty setting.
