Not offered until Semester 2 2023 This course introduces you to the foundations of P&O management of foot and lower limb pathologies, while relating these skills to models of behaviour and social theories of healthcare. You will be introduced to clinical assessment skills, how to explore and utilise evidenced-based treatment practices, and develop critical communication strategies to advance your understanding of client centred care as a healthcare professional. Practical activities involve industry-relevant clinical assessment techniques and the technical skills to fabricate and deliver P&O interventions for the lower limb.
