This 9-course series introduces students to the profession of physical therapy and expands the students' spiritual, social, and ethical self-awareness for professional identity. Additional instruction and preparation is on the policies, procedures, expectations, and issues inherent in Clinical Education. The portfolio system's use for progressive growth tracking is an integral part of this series. This 1st-course in the 9-course series explores the scope of physical therapy and preparation for Integrated Clinical Experiences (ICE) including OSHA and HIPAA training. The model of health and disability supported by the World Health Organization, the ICF model, is introduced as foundational to patientcentered care.
