ZOL Campus Sint-Jan
General hospital with three campuses and a very wide range of services. As a student one will be mainly active on the acute traumatology department.
This service receives many traffic victims with often complex pathological cases: polytrauma, threat to vital systems such as heart, lung and kidney function, whether or not present brain trauma with possible coma. Treatment goals are usually in function of supporting these vital functions.
1. Department: Ambulante Cardio/Respi Reva
The physiotherapist in question takes initiatives and decisions with a view to these treatment goals. The emphasis here is therefore on high-level clinical reasoning. Not easy but educational. The physiotherapist sometimes uses very progressive forms of therapy and is prepared to support a thesis. The student encounters patients fighting for their lives. Some patient don't win this fight; be prepared.
In addition to the work on this service, the student will also be active on other services, such as neonatology and cardiac surgery department.
