What it covers
PTY4171 continues to develop the five themes upon which the four year curriculum is based. These are: • Theme 1: Personal and Professional Development; • Theme 2: Population, Society and Health; • Theme 3: Fundamental Knowledge of Health Science; • Theme 4: Applied Practice; and • Theme 5: Research. Delivery of physiotherapy services and ongoing case based learning provide opportunities for integration of the different themes within the course. You will undertake a clinical attachment (5 weeks) during this unit and complete self directed learning tasks, providing them the opportunity to apply integrated knowledge and skills from previous learning in the Bachelor of Physiotherapy to acute, community or subacute patient care.
