PTA Law, Ethics & Professionalism

This course introduces students to biomedical and health care ethics. Topics include a wide range of subjects from exploring national policy and the rights of patients, to developing appreciation of culture and environment on the patient perspective in health care. This course has also been intended to help students develop tools to assess how health care professionals and consumers make difficult health care choices, and to assess their own biases related to health care perception.  This course will also review California Laws and Ethics material as related to the exam required for licensure.
