NHPPS3215 Orthopaedics and Sports
This unit will further build on student's knowledge in relation to musculoskeletal assessment and intervention by expanding their skills towards orthopaedic and sporting presentations. Students will be expected to apply evidence based research, safety considerations and, where appropriate, explore the medico-legal implications of techniques within the sporting realm. The unit is intended to give students the foundation practical abilities to work within the professional sporting realm by exposing them to up-to-date assessment and treatment methods while reiterating and exploring the ideas of team-based therapy and critical thinking to a range of clinical scenarios.
