Rehab Learning Center Online Course – 1.9 hours
Have you wondered what expert clinicians excel at? Skilled clinical reasoning and mentoring have proven to be paramount to clinical expertise. This online course will examine how each has been defined and their various types. The strengths and weaknesses of each will be discussed. The characteristics of novice versus expert clinicians are detailed. Examples of how expert clinicians practice and reflect on decision-making are provided with multiple practical examples. These practical examples are based on the instructor’s 30 years of experience. The course will challenge you to reflect on your decision-making processes, adjust such decisions based on feedback, and utilize various strategies and tools for self-reflection. While the course does do a ‘deep dive’ into the literature regarding both clinical reasoning and mentoring, the focus of this course is the practical application and reflection in the clinical environment.
This course is designed for both students and clinicians wanting to improve their decision-making and clinician to clinician relationships. Each of these topics has previously been defined as critical core skills for clinical expertise.

- Differentiate characteristics of expert and novice diagnosticians.
- Identify critical thinking core skills.
- Differentiate various methods of developing critical thinking.
- Define and contrast various strategies utilized in successful mentoring.
