About this Unit
In 2010 this unit will be replaced by 400881 - Functional Anatomy. This unit is intended to provide students with an in depth and clinical study of those human medical sciences which underpin specific intervention principles and procedures to be taught in the professional units. Primary contact health care providers have professional requirements that cover a broad spectrum of diagnostic, medical and physical practices. In order to ensure a suitable basis for later practice of osteopathy, podiatry, and occupational therapy, students require a detailed knowledge and understanding of anatomy and physiology with emphasis on musculoskeletal system, innervation and blood supply of relevant body structures.
