Objective

Students perceive human behaviour and welfare as a holistic, psychosocial and physical entity and understand the modern view of mental health and mental capacity. Students have the basic competence to encounter clients with mental health problems or substance abuse. They identify the most common challenges of interaction with clients with mental health or substance abuse problems; they can also assess their professional limitations to deal with these clients; and they can refer these clients to other services based on the legislation on mental health. Students recognize different signs of crises in life or traumas and are able to encounter clients in crisis or suffering from trauma. Students understand the significance of mental resources to the adaptation and wellbeing of people coming from a variety of backgrounds. Students are familiar with the phases of human life span and consider the special features and challenges of clients of various age groups. Students are familiar with the developmental phases of children. Students identify distinctive characteristics of special groups and recognize their significance to their work.

Anatomy of the nervous system 3 ects:
Students can explain the development of the nervous system, its basic structure and main functions, the structure of nerve cells as well as the formation, conduction and transmission to other cells. Students can describe the central innervation of the extremities in detail and know which muscle groups and/or skin areas they innervate. Students identify the most common nerve damages and their symptoms.

Students identify the most common nerve damages and their symptoms.

Students describe the significance and impact of different areas of functional capacity to prosthetics and orthotics.
Students are proficient in observing and analyzing functional capacity in the selection of prosthetic and orthotic devices as well as planning, implementing and evaluating prosthetic and orthotic services. Students familiarize themselves with the methods used in the analysis and evaluation of physical functions. Students are proficient in the principles of mechanics. Students describe materials and products used in the field by means of principles and concepts of mechanics. Students evaluate the significance of biomechanical approach to work practices of the field. Students describe the biomechanical properties of the structures of the musculoskeletal system as well as the biomechanical changes in them (age, physical exercise, injuries). Students describe the physical strength directed at the musculoskeletal system by means of mechanical concepts and analyze them in the use of prostheses and orthoses. Students use biomechanical measurement methods for gait analysis and interpret the findings.
