The number of older adults (age 65 and older) living in the United States is growing rapidly. Almost 60 million older adults were living in the United States in 2016. This number is projected to rise to over 72 million by 2030, when approximately one in five U.S. residents will be age 65 or older. The rapid growth of the older population results from multiple factors including medical advances, life-prolonging technologies, and the aging of the Baby Boom generation (whose members began turning 65 years old in 2011).
In coming years, healthcare professionals will face this aging of the population, along with the accompanying health and economic challenges. The purpose of this course is to highlight ethical issues that may confront healthcare and behavioral health professionals working with older adults and their families as these individuals near the end of life. Many of these issues are related to advances in medical technologies that have occurred over the past several decades (and that continue to be developed) and have led to increasingly complex choices. The course will provide background on ethical frameworks and principles used in healthcare settings for guidance in resolving ethical problems. This course will also identify major ethical issues concerning older adults and healthcare decisions and provide a model for addressing ethical dilemmas in healthcare settings.
This basic-level course is written for healthcare professionals, including nurses, social workers, mental health counselors, marriage and family therapists, psychologists, occupational and physical therapy practitioners, and respiratory therapists. Other healthcare professionals who work with older adults and on interdisciplinary teams will also find the information presented useful to their practice.

Participants will be introduced to the current evidence-based approach to the management of neck pain using Clinical Practice Guidelines from the Orthopaedic Physical Therapy Section of the American Physical Therapy Association with clinical reasoning. As payers and medical practitioners increasingly depend on evidence-based Guidelines, clinicians must utilize published recommendations when selecting examination tools and designing therapeutic programs to direct functional outcomes and to optimize documentation for reimbursement. CPGs are intended to complement the clinical reasoning process of clinicians, not to provide a mandated protocol for making decisions about patient management. Understand the terminology and recommendations used in the CPG for neck pain. Select the proper impairment categories for your patients with neck pain for a more accurate match to their medical diagnosis, then choose recommended interventions to promote functional outcomes. Recognize what intervention types to utilize for specific impairment categories

Should pain science education be a hands-off approach? Some believe because there is limited research supporting the use of manual therapy, there is no need for hands-on treatment. However, manual therapy is a great pain management technique, especially if applied with a bio- psycho-social approach. This course explains how manual therapy and pain science education are not mutually exclusive, but rather, are a great complement to each other. Three different classifications of pain are discussed as well as how manual therapy can be incorporated to treat these types of patient presentations. Understanding what type of pain is most dominant for your patient will direct your treatment plan.

Recent developments within the sports medicine field to promote athlete safety includes education provided to athletic coaches, parents, and athletes at various levels of competition regarding serious sports-related injuries. Although these injuries are often difficult to diagnose due to the hidden and subjective nature of signs and symptoms, head trauma can be extremely harmful and detrimental to the career of any athlete. With the serious nature of these sports- related injuries, an incidence reduction of these injuries may occur with appropriate education to athletic personnel as well as implementation of safeguards throughout the health care process of the athlete. Many state laws and federal mandates have been enacted requiring appropriate education to school and team officials prior to the start of each competitive season. The idea of evaluating the effectiveness of educating coaches and athletic staff members on serious sports injuries is necessary for the safe and efficient care of all athletes. As educational modules are continually being developed to comply with new laws, it will no longer be prudent to just provide these resources to these members. The disseminating group should be responsible for assuring that the information is comprehended by participants as well as practical to implement in a variety of sport settings. In this course, lecture format will be implemented to achieve the stated objectives. The instructor will provide an overarching review of the literature as it pertains to concussion education. The participants will compare best practices to currently implemented educational programs within their own clinical practice.

Current research demonstrates the importance of the fascial system to movement and function. More clinicians are including gentle fascial therapy to achieve measurable outcomes for their patients. In this course, you will learn to assess pain and mobility impairments related to restrictions of the myofascial and craniosacral systems. Understand the anatomy and function of the fascial and craniosacral system. Evaluate and treat the three-dimensional fascial planes of the cranial and myofascial systems, using gentle fascial mobilization to release abnormal tension. Video demonstrations guide you through appropriate hand positions for releasing the transverse fascial planes, upper and lower extremities, and the craniosacral system including sacral, frontal, parietal, temporal, occipital and mandibular releases. Learn to apply compression and distraction interventions to facilitate motion of the extremities, joints, cranial base, thoracic outlet, pelvic floor and respiratory diaphragm. Assess fascial strain patterns using general and local listening and balance testing to identify and treat primary fascial tension patterns. Relieve pain and tension and promote fascial mobility using direct and indirect techniques for improved mobility, balanced posture and function. Explore how to use gentle techniques to facilitate a change, rather than imposing movement upon the system. A review of evidence-based research indicates how fascial therapy is used to promote measurable functional outcomes.

Pre-Admission Screening & Resident Review (PASRR) is a federally mandated program created in 1987 as part of the nursing home reform, from language in the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (OBRA). It requires all states to pre-screen all individuals, regardless of age or payor source, seeking admission to a Medicaid certified nursing facility. While each nursing facility has long been required to follow the timelines and protocols for new admissions who meet the criteria, recent updates to the Long Term Care codes of federal regulation have presented an increased focus on assuring these protocols during the survey process. This course will review the rules, protocols, timelines and definitions that are all a part of the PASRR process. Additionally, insights will be shared based on feedback obtained from different state PASRR representatives and service providers, to equip the course registrant with tools and clarifications of the regulatory expectations.

The Home Exercise Program (HEP) is becoming increasingly important to the success of a rehab patients in all settings. Visit caps, cost deterrents, access, and even time management barriers continue to surge in all rehab settings. “Homework” in the form of the HEP exercises has grown from just an ancillary tool to a critical pillar of successful outcome. While the knowledge of the therapist is not in question with the exercise selection in these programs, most practitioners do not have adequate training in educational design and instruction to develop the best home program possible. Research on optimum instruction is actually contrary to many programs provided. This multimedia course provides the learner with a greater understanding of best practices to enhance the compliance and design for their HEP.

Many students receive their first power wheelchair and bring this immediately to school where the wheelchair may be housed due to accessibility issues. This may leave the school team with the task of teaching the child to use the power wheelchair. Mobility training can be accomplished by pulling the student out of other activities, but can also be done as a part of the school day. Case examples will be presented.

Recent developments within the sports medicine field to promote athlete safety includes education provided to athletic coaches, parents, and athletes at various levels of competition regarding serious sports-related injuries. Although these injuries are often difficult to diagnose due to the hidden and subjective nature of signs and symptoms, head trauma can be extremely harmful and detrimental to the career of any athlete. With the serious nature of these sports- related injuries, an incidence reduction of these injuries may occur with appropriate education to athletic personnel as well as implementation of safeguards throughout the health care process of the athlete. Many state laws and federal mandates have been enacted requiring appropriate education to school and team officials prior to the start of each competitive season. The idea of evaluating the effectiveness of educating coaches and athletic staff members on serious sports injuries is necessary for the safe and efficient care of all athletes. As educational modules are continually being developed to comply with new laws, it will no longer be prudent to just provide these resources to these members. The disseminating group should be responsible for assuring that the information is comprehended by participants as well as practical to implement in a variety of sport settings. In this course, lecture format will be implemented to achieve the stated objectives. The instructor will provide an overarching review of the literature as it pertains to concussion education. The participants will compare best practices to currently implemented educational programs within their own clinical practice.

Current research demonstrates the importance of the fascial system to movement and function. More clinicians are including gentle fascial therapy to achieve measurable outcomes for their patients. In this course, you will learn to assess pain and mobility impairments related to restrictions of the myofascial and craniosacral systems. Understand the anatomy and function of the fascial and craniosacral system. Evaluate and treat the three-dimensional fascial planes of the cranial and myofascial systems, using gentle fascial mobilization to release abnormal tension. Video demonstrations guide you through appropriate hand positions for releasing the transverse fascial planes, upper and lower extremities, and the craniosacral system including sacral, frontal, parietal, temporal, occipital and mandibular releases. Learn to apply compression and distraction interventions to facilitate motion of the extremities, joints, cranial base, thoracic outlet, pelvic floor and respiratory diaphragm. Assess fascial strain patterns using general and local listening and balance testing to identify and treat primary fascial tension patterns. Relieve pain and tension and promote fascial mobility using direct and indirect techniques for improved mobility, balanced posture and function. Explore how to use gentle techniques to facilitate a change, rather than imposing movement upon the system. A review of evidence-based research indicates how fascial therapy is used to promote measurable functional outcomes.

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 professionâs 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.

Diabetes mellitus is a common endocrine pathology associated with abnormally elevated glucose dilution due to limited insulin production, limited target cell responsiveness, or a combination of both. This leads to a constant state of hyperglycemia. Over time, chronic hyperglycemia leads to destruction of different organs; primarily blood vessels, the nervous system, heart, eyes and kidneys. Of significant concern to physical therapists is the fact that nearly one quarter of all people 65 and older in the U.S. has pre-diabetes.

Students may be exposed to learning and teaching styles, or leadership training may be offered in the workplace and perhaps through mentorship opportunities. These opportunities may lack proper definition of leadership theories and models that would enable the learner to be successful in leadership roles.
