Preparing the student to be able to draw up rehabilitation diagnostics, in accordance with the principles, methods and instruments, we present the methodology and instruments used in functional assessment and cognitive rehabilitation, with particular emphasis on the evaluation of "readiness" and assessing the ability to determine the overall aim of rehabilitation. It is intended that students develop a critical thinking about methods and rehabilitation processes, adjusting them for each situation.

Considering the operational recommendations for the maintenance of presence format of school and non-school activities, but in the impossibility of ensuring the face-to-face operation of all school activities of the 1st semester of 2020/2021 in the current pandemic context, due to the lack of physical facilities capable of safely accommodating the number of students in this cycle of studies, the theoretical and theoretical-practical components of this UC will take place partially at a distance format, with synchronous moments, making use of telematic procedures.
