Clinical Placement

Volledige vakbeschrijving

In the third clinical rotations period of 8 weeks (two 10 weeks periods have been already fulfilled in the bachelor curriculum) students will be placed in more complex environments in which physiotherapeutic health care is delivered e.g., the rehabilitation center, the hospital setting, a stroke center.
Students are also permitted to take this clinical rotations period abroad, or combine it with their master thesis, in which case a 20 weeks part-time internship is possible.
A clinical rotations coordinator will assign students to and monitor their progress at the various institutions.
The clinical rotation period is structured in the same way as in the bachelor and builds a student portfolio
