Description:

This five-week, full-time clinical affiliation is the final clinical practice for the student. At the start of this affiliation, students will have completed 65% of their clinical hours and all of their academic coursework. The student is expected to practice all the basic physical therapy data collection techniques and treatment interventions, and implement the plan of care as directed by the physical therapist. At the conclusion of this affiliation, the student is expected to perform at entry-level, consistently and efficiently providing quality care with simple or complex patients in a variety of clinical environments under the supervision of a physical therapist. The student requires no further guidance or supervision except when addressing new or complex problems, at which time the student seeks assistance. Two hundred hours of off-site clinical experience are required. The affiliation culminates with a one-day oncampus seminar. Prerequisite: PTA 291.
