OTH 624: Level I Fieldwork: Physical Rehabilitation

The overall purpose of the fieldwork experience is to provide students with exposure to clinical settings through observation and participation in the treatment process. The opportunity to work with clients and therapists helps students to examine their reactions to clients, themselves, and other personnel while integrating academic learning with clinical practice. The focus of the learning experience will be the application of skills learned through coursework to include observation, written and verbal communication, professional behavior, individual and group participation with patients and clients, and beginning level evaluation and treatment planning.
