Integrated Practice 2

Integrated Practice 2 aims to facilitate students in developing further knowledge and skill in the management of the ageing client, chronic conditions and disabilities and to look at healthier aging approaches through a series of clinical cases, simulations and practicals. Students will also learn how to apply various research methodologies to critically evaluate the efficacy of their interventions and exercise prescription for aged care residents. Students will also gain further skills in becoming effective communicators and educators with exposure to simulation-based workshops. These skills add to the foundations of knowledge gained from previous units and will equip students with the necessary level of understanding and skill when managing clients in rehabilitation and community settings, across the lifespan and inclusive of people from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and culturally diverse populations.
