Abstract

"Physical therapy students from Oakland University's Patient Management course use the techniques they've learned to work with patients who have various ailments. Only he "patients" really aren't patients at all ??? they're students from OU's Department of Music, Theatre and Dance. The DPT students are presented with a brief report of each "patient's" condition, including a diagnosis and any restrictions, then work on helping patients learn to maneuver apart from their wheelchair."
