DPT-881 Terminal Clinical Experience (TCE) 1

Terminal Clinical Experiences (TCE) 1 is a full time (37+ hours/week) 8-week clinical experience with opportunities for supervised patient management in examination, evaluation, program planning, discharge planning, and intervention for patients in an assigned practice setting. Student outcomes are assessed using the nationally standardized Clinical Performance Index (CPI). Expectations for students' performance are incrementally higher than on previous clinical experiences in the areas of supervision/guidance, quality, complexity, consistency, and efficiency as defined by the APTA Clinical Performance Instrument. By the end of this course, students should be rated on the CPI at or above intermediate level in all categories.
