Content
This unit will provide students with the knowledge, skills and experience to work in a safe, respectful, and inclusive way to deliver value-based clinical exercise practice that is responsive to people of diverse backgrounds and experiences. This unit is designed to develop strategies to implement evidence-based clinical approaches for the assessment and management of common musculoskeletal conditions, while understanding contextual factors and clinician-specific factors that may influence clinical efficacy. A client-centred approach which considers biopsychosocial factors contributing to pain, disability and other client-specific outcomes form the foundation of the clinical approaches explored within this unit.
