OTH 206 - Neuroscience Principles and Occupational Therapy Assessment
Semester Hours: 3
Spring
In this course, students will develop an understanding of the neuroanatomy and function of the human nervous system including the central, peripheral, somatosensory, motor, visual, vestibular, auditory, and autonomic nervous systems, and the concept of neuroplasticity. Anatomy and function of the human nervous system will be taught with emphasis placed on its role in development, movement, sensation, cognition, perception and behavior. Application of concepts and knowledge will be linked to common neurological clinical problems related to occupational performance in order to provide a solid foundation for planning therapeutic interventions. Clinical screenings/assessments of client factors and performance skills will be taught to facilitate understanding of the underlying factors that support and hinder successful engagement in occupations.
