The purpose of this course is to provide useful, pragmatic information to rehabilitation therapists to facilitate successful rehabilitation for individuals with Alzheimer’s and other dementias. Too often, those with dementia are excluded from rehabilitation opportunities based on the assumption that they will not benefit, or they are given a brief trial of rehabilitation that does not take into consideration the special needs of this population and, as a result, they do not make gains. This course will provide an overview of Alzheimer’s disease and its medical management, practical information on optimal interactions with individuals who have Alzheimer’s disease, research findings related to motor learning in this population, existing evidence on rehabilitation with individuals with dementia, and strategies to facilitate successful outcomes.

About the Course:
Due to the anatomy and importance of the essential functions of the hips and knees, severe pain in either one or both of these areas can have a direct adverse effect on everyday life and can severely reduce quality of life. There is a biomechanical reliance on each of these joints to function optimally during activities of daily living. Approximately 22% of the general population suffers from knee pain, and knee and hip pain are even more common in older people (Damen, 2019). Disruption in either one can result in aberrant movements of the other, and they rely on coordination and common nerve and muscular performance during ambulation. This course will focus on these two joints individually and as they relate to each other, and discuss various symptoms, treatments, and effective plans of treatment for optimum patient outcome.

About the Course:
This intermediate-level course provides updated, evidence- based information for physical therapists and occupational therapists who work with individuals who have cerebral palsy. This course will be particularly helpful to clinicians who have not recently reviewed the literature related to cerebral palsy and to those who do not frequently provide physical therapy services for this population. Physical therapists who received their training before the profession’s move to doctoral-level training may also find this course helpful because of its focus on the clinical reasoning skills that are necessary when patients can directly access physical therapists without physician referral. Most physical therapists and occupational therapists in pediatric clinical settings will encounter individuals with cerebral palsy. Because pediatric and school-based clinical services typically end by the age of 21, physical therapists and occupational therapists who provide treatment in adult therapy settings also need to be competent in treating this rapidly growing segment of the adult population. Physical and occupational therapists who work with this heterogeneous population need to be aware of the many factors critical to clinical decision making. This course will address prevalence, etiology, diagnosis, classification, examination, evaluation, prognosis, interventions, and outcomes for individuals with cerebral palsy across the lifespan. Because the body of literature related to this diagnosis is extensive, this course will provide an overview of the most salient current issues that impact the clinical decisions and care provided by physical therapists and occupational therapists. Clinicians who desire a more in-depth understanding of cerebral palsy are encouraged to pursue applicable resources and references more extensively.

About the Course:
This course, designed to provide the healthcare practitioner with a broad overview of the assessment and provision of wheelchair seating, is written at a basic to intermediate-level for the occupational and physical therapist who have little or no experience in this specialty practice area. Many people require the use of a wheelchair for dependent or independent mobility, and each wheelchair provides some form of seating. Wheelchair seating directly affects a client’s position, which in turn affects function for all of that person’s daily tasks. It is essential that occupational therapy practitioners be able to competently participate as members of the interprofessional team in determining the optimal seating and wheeled mobility interventions for a particular client. Common diagnoses for a client using a wheelchair include cerebral palsy, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, multiple sclerosis, and muscular dystrophies.

Dynamic seating provides movement within a wheelchair. When the client moves, the dynamic seating components move with the client, maintaining alignment with the seating system for postural support and stability. Clients who extend within the seating system or seek out movement may benefit from dynamic seating. Dynamic components absorb and diffuse force, protecting both the client from pain and injury and the wheelchair seat and frame from damage. Absorbing force may reduce muscle tone. Providing movement can increase alertness and decrease agitation. Movement can also improve function and postural control.

Technology has also come along for the ride, with advances in treadmills, support systems, robotics, and more. However, it is often very difficult to stay abreast of the latest information when engaged in full time clinical practice. This course was created to inform participants on what is the latest and greatest in the research world, from advances in treatment paradigms, to the newest technological gadgets. We will not only introduce these topics, but also go into the pros and cons of each. By the end of this course, participants should have a good understanding where we currently stand with locomotor training, and where we are headed in the near future, as well as how you can implement these ideas into your clinical practice.

Many people with motor, cognitive, and/or sensory limitations will have difficulty controlling basic devices in their environment, including audiovisual equipment, lighting, thermostats, power door openers, phone, and hospital bed. Electronic Aids to Daily Living (EADLs) have been used to provide a means of independent control for many years, but are now outdated and overpriced. Newer consumer technologies, such as Alexa, are providing new options to increase control of devices in the environment. This course, Providing Control of Devices in the Environment for Play, Independence, and Participation, will address the problems with EADLs, the solutions, and applications.

Adhesive capsulitis is one of the most challenging shoulder disorders encountered by rehabilitation specialist. The traditional rehabilitation approach has universally emphasized aggressive stretching / passive range of motion and joint mobilizations. As with lower back pain, a classification-based approach has been proposed to help clinicians design a proper rehabilitation program, establish an accurate prognosis, and deliver optimal interventions through an individualized approach. This evidence-based approach represents a relatively recent paradigm shift in the treatment of adhesive capsulitis. This course, Rehabilitation of Adhesive Capsulitis, discusses the pathophysiology, risk factors, and the clinical versus medical diagnosis of adhesive capsulitis. Video-based manual therapy techniques, including joint mobilizations and soft tissue mobilizations, with specific indications are presented. The level of evidence for interventions including joint mobilizations, stretches, therapeutic exercise, cortisone injections, modalities, and patient education are reviewed. Finally, self-management strategies are provided to complement rehabilitation interventions.

Potentially 20% of Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) will fail due to post-op complications that are not being adequately addressed by therapists in the rehabilitation phase. Literature lists the problems of unresolved pain, deficient flexion for functional mobility, and unresolved quad and hamstring weakness as complications of TKA which can lead to further surgeries and unsatisfactory results. Literature also identifies less frequent but serious complications that are contributing to failed surgical rehabilitation including arthrofibrosis or excess scarring, Atherogenic Muscular Inhibition or inability of quadriceps activation, tourniquet effects on rehabilitation, and Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy) that may be affecting people without a validating diagnosis. Research recommends more advanced strategies, particularly manual therapy to deal with all of these conditions. Unfortunately, very little evidenced practice research is available to outline the specifics of soft tissue techniques that are effective for all of these situations. This course teaches the seriousness of the conditions and the application of several soft tissue techniques. It also teaches simple but effective proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) strategies to decrease pain while working for full motion and adequate strength.

Locomotor training, aka gait training, is often the major focus of a therapy plan of care. Rehabilitation literature has leaned heavily into researching better ways to improve walking ability, with many new concepts and developments over the past two decades. Technology has also come along for the ride, with advances in treadmills, support systems, robotics, and more. However, it is often very difficult to stay abreast of the latest information when engaged in full-time clinical practice. This course was created to inform participants on what is the latest and greatest in the research world, from advances in treatment paradigms, to the newest technological gadgets. We will not only introduce these topics, but also go into the pros and cons of each. By the end of this course, participants should have a good understanding where we currently stand with locomotor training, and where we are headed in the near future, as well as how you can implement these ideas into your clinical practice.
