Learners will study communication strategies, professional development practices, and techniques for supporting the psychosocial needs of patients. Finally, the course brings these concepts together by focusing on the professional behaviors that sustain a successful allied health career. By course completion, students will be better equipped to manage expectations, navigate workplace relationships, and conduct themselves professionally throughout their careers.
