PHT 5813 - Internship I

Hours: 7

This course is divided into two parts and is the first of a three-part series of clinical internships. The first half of Internship I will consist of a seminar dealing with the course objectives 1–8. During the second half of Internship I, students will be away from campus and assigned to a clinical facility for 7 weeks. The clinical setting will be either an acute care hospital or an acute care/outpatient mix facility. The Clinical Performance Instrument (CPI) developed by APTA is the current grading tool for physical therapy students during their clinical internships.
