The article analyzes the use of International Classification of Functioning, Limitations of Life and Health (ICF) to improve the teaching of clinical disciplines for bachelors and masters in the specialty "Physical therapy. Ergotherapy". Given the modern paradigm of health and physical therapy with their focus on human functioning, its activity and participation, the rehabilitation diagnosis should be based on the ICF. The physical therapist needs to focus in his clinical practice not on the clinical diagnosis, but on the ICF as the basis for setting the rehabilitation diagnosis.
At the department of medical rehabilitation during conducting practical classes on clinical disciplines for bachelors and masters in the specialty "Physical therapy. Ergotherapy" on the basis of a patient’s examination within the competence of the physical therapist there is a list of problems formulated in the categories of the ICF (function, activity, participation), a quantitative assessment of the manifestation of violation or restriction is carried out and the role of the environmental factor is determined, after the establishment of the rehabilitation diagnosis, a program of rehabilitation, efficiency which is also controlled by ICF.
Bachelors and masters in the specialty "Physical therapy. Ergotherapy" should learn to navigate the ICF and use it to establish a rehabilitation diagnosis and develop rehab programs.
