Content

How do you take into account the effects of central and peripheral nervous system disorders and illnesses on persons' functioning and on their possibilities of rehabilitation?
How do you use medical and pharmacological knowledge to support neurological physiotherapy?
How do you assess clients’ functional capacity and participation, and coping in their everyday life and changes in their mental resources?
How do you assess the need for assistive devices and how do you control their use?
How do you use evidence-based methods of physiotherapy to support functional capacity?
How do you identify risk factors in patient safety?
How do you promote human functioning in neurological physiotherapy with assistive devices and technological solutions?

Materials

Learning materials for independent study on the Learn eLearning environment. Studying the subjects also requires an active, independent search for information.

Teaching methods

The implementation of the course is presented in the orientation. The course includes studying on campus or at another designated location, and at home. If you have previous knowledge of the subject you are studying, familiarize yourself with the principles of partial AHOT and AHOT (LUX).

Employer connections

The course may include some aspects of working life cooperation.

Exam schedules

The course includes learning tasks and a final exam. Deadlines are indicated in the course instructions.

Student workload

The course is 5 ECTS CR which means about 135 hours of independent work for students.

Content scheduling

The course is divided into three parts:

1. Basics of neurological rehabilitation
2. Physiotherapy planning, implementation and evaluation
3. Supporting the functioning of the peripheral nervous system
