Description

This course provides a scientific basis for occupational rehabilitation. The main focus is on examining methods, eg. clinical, psychological, ergonomic and physical, as well as understanding rehabilitation systems. The course does not provide any hands-on instruction on treatment or therapeutic modalities. Rather, it provides a structured approach to examining the contributions of, and evidence for, different methods and systems that seek to return people to work following injury.
