PT 881 Clinical Experience I
This course is the first of four full-time clinical experiences (PT 881, PT 882, PT 883, and PT 884) during which students integrate the knowledge and skills learned in the classroom with clinical practice under the mentorship and supervision of a licensed physical therapist. During this beginner level clinical experience, students will practice foundational elements of patient/client management in the clinical setting. Foundational elements include safety and risk management, professional behavior, adherence to legal and professional practice standards, communication, and basic clinical assessment and intervention.
