DPT-721 Therapeutic Skills I

The 7-course Therapeutic Skills Series investigates clinical management concepts from the Guide to PT Practice. In this series, holistic patient approaches are presented for PT examination, assessment, and intervention of the patient with increasing complexity requiring an advancing ability to clinically reason, critically think, prioritize, and administer bestpractice care. Therapeutic Skills 1, the first of seven courses in the series, introduces the student to patient interaction and interview skills, visual assessment and screening, palpation skills, and massage. Static & intermittent compression will be explored including indications, contraindications, therapeutic effects, and treatment selection and application.
