Chapter Exam Questions

Course Introduction

Physical Therapy Foundations introduces students to the fundamental principles and core concepts underlying the practice of physical therapy. The course explores the historical development of the profession, key professional values, and the scope of physical therapy practice in various healthcare settings. Students learn about the basic anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics relevant to movement and function, as well as foundational examination and intervention techniques. Emphasis is placed on the role of the physical therapist within interprofessional teams, principles of patient-centered care, clinical reasoning, ethical considerations, and the importance of evidence-based practice. This course prepares students for advanced study and clinical experience in the physical therapy curriculum.
