MEDK4200 Mediebruk og brukerinvolvering: Metodiske perspektiver Emneplan

Language of instruction: Norwegian

The purpose of this course is to develop the students’ practical competence in individually-adapted psychomotor physiotherapy. The students’ treatment skills are the main focus of the course, where it is important that the physical and verbal ways in which they approach the patient complement each other. The current clinical picture shows an increasing proportion of patients with chronic and complex conditions. The course has a focus on patient-oriented treatment and what treatment and improvement can mean to this group of patients. Students will also look at the body-mind dualism. The physiotherapist’s role in mental health work is highlighted through observation training.
