Short Term Care II
Volledige vakbeschrijving
In this course, you will work again with every day, short-term complaints. This time, the focus will be on formulating various policies together with the patient, shared decision making, and the added value and risks of digital care (e. g. artificial intelligence (AI)). This will be done in the context of the senses, soft tissues (muscles and skin), and the stress-system and personal coping strategies (work-life balance).
You learn the foundations of quantitative research by writing the methods section of an academic article. Furthermore, we pay attention to fraud in science and your responsibility as a future doctor. You will learn about the relationship between health problems and work and how to communicate with different therapists and occupational health and safety experts. The organisation of curative care and the indication for referral to other care providers are also discussed.
