PTA 267 Clinical Fieldwork II, 2 hours (0-0-10) This clinical class is a continuation of PTA 266 and will provide clinical interaction in the health care environment. The course entails on-going communication between the clinical instructor, student and course coordinator. The student will safely and effectively apply procedures and techniques previously attained in the classroom. (0-0-25) This clinical education experience allows the student to practice in the health care environment, using entry level skills attained in previous classroom instruction. The course entails on-going communication between the clinical instructor, student, and course coordinator. Upon completion of this course, the student should be able to demonstrate entry level competency in those skills necessary for functioning as a physical therapist assistant. PTA 268 Clinical Practicum, 5 hours PTA 293 Directed Study for PTA, 1 hour (1-0-0) This course is designed to increase the opportunity for exploring, reading, and reporting on specific topics related to the field of physical therapy. Emphasis is placed on the development of knowledge in an area of interest to the student. The student should be able to meet the objectives of the course as approved by the instructor. (Course is used for Program readmission purposes only.)
