Module Synopsis
單元概要
This course explores the roles and responsibilities of the Human Service Workers (e.g., Physical Therapist, Speech Therapist, Occupational Therapist, Healthcare Workers, and Social Workers) in education and healthcare settings. In particular, their work in assessing and managing risk and ensuring safety and autonomy in relation to the special needs population in each of these roles. Emphases will be placed on ethics, confidentiality, standards of practice, and professional behavior in practice. Ethical and legal issues will be discussed in both local and global contexts. Recent trends in the field will also be covered, including collaboration, emerging areas of practice, evidence-based practice and the healthcare team role delineation. Students will bring multi-disciplinary perspectives into thinking about innovative practices in response to local changes and challenges in serving SEN groups.
