Tetiana Levytska

Abstract


The author reveals the peculiarities of the organization of professional training of physical therapy specialists in Danish universities. The strategic goals of teaching Danish education institutions for physiotherapists on the example of the Copenhagen University of Applied Sciences (increasing the number of teachers involved in research; strengthening integration of practice into teaching; stimulation and motivation for continuous learning, practice and study of not only professional literature; taking into account the level of stronger students to continuously increase training requirements; round-the-clock access to knowledge (24/7) within the HEI to provide students with the best resources when it comes to the use of IT and digital solutions in education) are considered. It is clarified that the main competences of a physiotherapist should be management, planning, implementation, evaluation, development and dissemination of physiotherapy practices, as well as coordination of patients and staff of health care facilities in a common creative, innovative and holistic sense of human autonomy and dignity.

Key words: professional training, physical therapy, specialists in physical therapy, universities, Denmark.
