PT 852 Clinical Experience II
Clinical Education II consists of a ten (10) week full-time supervised clinical education experience that is designed to provide students with the opportunity to build upon knowledge, skills, and behaviors learned in the classroom and in the previous clinical experience. The focus is on developing mastery of skills in the processes of professional practice: patient-therapist interactions, performing comprehensive examinations and evaluations, developing, and implementing interventions, establishing diagnosis and prognosis, performing documentation, and re-evaluation of patient outcomes. Students are assigned to a clinical site providing structured clinical education experiences in patient care areas different from those encountered during the previous 8-week clinical experience. At this point in the curriculum, students have completed all academic coursework, and are ready to be challenged by clinical education in the range of practice settings.
