This course advances the student’s knowledge and capability in performing a comprehensive person centred clinical assessment. Students will critique a range of tools used in clinical assessment and reflect on their use in practice. Clinical reasoning and making sound judgements are predicated on a comprehensive assessment and students will analyse assessment findings in relation to the person’s current condition and develop plans of care. Reflection is central to self-assessment and self-improvement. Therefore, students will engage in reflective processes that will enable them to self-assess and evaluate both achievement of the course learning outcomes and their progress in advancing their capability in clinical assessment.
