DPT 6300 CLINICAL GRAND ROUNDS I
Clinical Grand Rounds 1 is the first of 4 courses in a progressive series withing the DPT curriculum. Two grand rounds series are delivered across the curriculum; one during the first program year, the other in the second. In this first course, students will be introduced to topics such as deductive reasoning, clinical-decision making, evidence-based interventional strategies, professional presentation making, and critical thinking skills utilized within the practice of physical therapy. Grand Rounds is a bi-weekly forum for students, core faculty, associated faculty and guest speakers, to come together and enhance their diagnostic, clinical, and treatment skills, through case presentation and discussion. clinicians and faculty within the field of Physical Therapy and related Health Professions will be invited to present in the fall and spring semesters. DPT students, in their final year, will be invited to present their capstone, doctoral seminar project (requirement). The goal of the Grand Rounds series is not only to teach best practices within Physical Therapy, but to actively involve related professions in active dialogue regarding patient care.
