This is a treatment planning for the real world course. It includes difficult clinical cases, finances, communication, marketing and team work.

– treatment planning is often taught as a theoretical clinical exercise. However when you are sitting in front of a patient, most of the difficulty is not a lack or knowledge, or a lack of clinical training. The biggest problems are the ability to make decisions when things are unclear, getting the patient to correctly tell you what they want, and working out how to deal with costs and treatment plans. Planning treatment that patients can’t afford is a waste of time. Planning treatment that the patient doesn’t want is an exercise in frustration.
