Abstract| This subject is based on principles of problem-based learning that considers complex issues of rehabilitation throughout the lifespan. It requires students to apply the knowledge and skills obtained through previous subjects in order to further develop clinical reasoning skills and case management practices. This process will enhance the concept of the students as a practitioner and encourage the development of resilient practitioners. This subject aims to develop resilient health workers equipped with a toolkit of skills and knowledge that can be used to enhance the life of a practitioner and the lives of clients. |
