About the Course:
Prematurity is a serious public health concern currently affecting 1 in 9 infants in the United States. Therapists serve a crucial role in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) interventions to assist parents in handling techniques, calming strategies, general developmental care and offer parent education, with a ubiquitous goal of promoting the best possible outcome. Given their strong educational foundation in neuro development and neonatal care, therapists are uniquely qualified to assume this role, but often may feel ill-equipped about venturing into such a high-risk setting. This 2-hour course is designed to ameliorate those concerns by offering a very thorough perspective of how to address all the multifaceted confounding factors in the NICU setting, from pain management to positioning. Therapists will gain a deeper understanding of the medical complexities and neurodevelopment care, as well as learn the interplay between nurture, nature, and the premature sensory system.

About the Course
Range of motion (ROM) limitations are associated with many of the conditions commonly seen in rehab, including stroke, multiple sclerosis, and osteoarthritis. A critical part of effective restoration of ROM is being able to identify what factors/issues are responsible for limiting ROM. These may include pain, edema, joint capsule tightness, articular surface damage, muscle shortness, and spasticity. This course focuses on the specific use of physical agent modalities to facilitate the restoration of range of motion, especially when used in conjunction with other typical rehab interventions. Several demonstration videos are presented in this course to help participants integrate new information into clinical practice.

About the Course
Telehealth is classic physical therapy or occupational therapy administered virtually through a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform, which is usually accessed through a device such as a smartphone or computer. Telehealth uniquely affords healthcare practitioners the ability to approach patients from a true biopsychosocial approach with a systematic consideration of the biological, psychological, and social factors. When providing telehealth services, therapists must also consider billing, payer contract agreements, state and federal practice guidelines, scope of practice, and HIPAA / personal health information (PHI). This course expounds on each of these considerations and teaches therapists how to set up and complete telehealth sessions for their practice, including how to evaluate patients remotely as well as how to monitor and treat patients remotely.

While many prescriptions and over-the-counter (OTC) drugs may have few side effects when taken alone, the risks of an adverse drug event increases when a person is taking several different medications at the same time. These risks are even greater for older adults due to their decreased kidney and liver function as well as changes in body composition. This course reviews the risks of polypharmacy in older adults. Examples are provided of the different types of drug interactions, followed by examples of potentially inappropriate medications for older patients as stated in the Beers Criteria. Case studies are shared for interprofessional clinicians of various disciplines to include patient decline in function, nutrition, cognition, balance, and other signs and symptoms resulting from polypharmacy.

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.

About the Course:
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.

Many individuals are suffering from obesity, anxiety, depression, chronic disease and autoimmune conditions. Our current health model focuses on symptoms, which often fails to confront both the root causes and long-term solutions. We must consider a new model of comprehensive care that assesses the whole person by looking at the interactions among genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors which can influence long-term health as well as chronic disease and not just an isolated set of symptoms. In essence, functional medicine supports the unique expression of health and vitality for each individual. As health professionals, we have an obligation to guide individuals to “optimal health,” defined by the World Health Organization as physical, emotional, spiritual, mental and social health. To do that effectively, each patient’s modifiable lifestyle factors, including sleep and relaxation, exercise and movement, nutrition, stress, and social relationships, must be factored into achieving wellness. This new evidence- based paradigm shift looks at Antecedents-Triggers-Mediators (ATMs) of disease, the gut-brain axis, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of health, inflammation, toxic loads, immune health, and much more. Utilizing this patient-centered, evidence-based approach, we can help our patients get to the root of their issues and improve their outcomes.

Prematurity is a serious public health concern currently affecting 1 in 9 infants in the United States. Therapists serve a crucial role in Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) interventions to assist parents in handling techniques, calming strategies, general developmental care and offer parent education, with a ubiquitous goal of promoting the best possible outcome.
Given their strong educational foundation in neuro development and neonatal care, therapists are uniquely qualified to assume this role, but often may feel ill-equipped about venturing into such a high-risk setting. This 2-hour course is designed to ameliorate those concerns by offering a very thorough perspective of how to address all the multifaceted confounding factors in the NICU setting, from pain management to positioning. Therapists will gain a deeper understanding of the medical complexities and neurodevelopment care, as well as learn the interplay between nurture, nature, and the premature sensory system.

Clinical outcomes for patients with chronic back and neck pain has historically been poor. Why? Patients with chronic back or neck pain need more than hands-on treatment and exercises. Pain is complex and a systematic approach is necessary to evaluate the type of pain most dominant in a patient’s clinical presentation. The subjective interview should review potential red and yellow flags. The objective evaluation should prioritize what areas need to be addressed first. Patients need and want knowledge; thus, patient education is paramount. This course expounds on pain assessment, pain neuroscience education, as well as pain treatment and approach.

As telehealth is becoming an increasingly used service delivery model in pediatric therapy, therapists are concerned they are lacking the tools necessary to address the plethora of unique challenges it brings to the forefront. There are so many “What if’s” in pediatric telehealth. What if… the child does not participate or engage during the session? If he/she has challenging behaviors? If there are significant physical limitations? If a facilitator needs to be trained? The chronicity of telehealth issues is very real and can often be debilitating. Not only can this impact the efficacy of patient outcomes but can also result in psychological symptoms such as stress and anxiety for many therapists. This course aims to offer solutions to these very universal barriers in pediatric telehealth by engaging clinicians in a case study format to educate and problem solve. By using a platform of realistic and research-based pediatric cases, clinicians are implored to increase their knowledge base and apply the highlighted principles of behavior management, Occupation Based Coaching and Contextual Therapy across various pediatric telehealth issues and settings.
