Are you ready to handle the booming influx of older adults seeking expert care to keep them moving? In this two-part seminar, clinicians will explore traditional and emerging assessments and interventions to maximize function in elders with mobility impairments, from the frail SNF resident to the competitive athlete. Maximize function for improved quality of life in elders. Clinicians master solutions to aging challenges, including pain, diminished strength and flexibility, degenerative changes, balance issues, falls, cognitive decline and pathologies. Aging clients today are more active early on and tend to live longer, with greater chance of developing painful, degenerative and pathological changes that impact function and quality of life. This seminar presents evidence-based outcome measures in part one, with detailed examination tools.

Rehabilitation professionals evaluate and treat older adults in a variety of settings. Older adults are a complex population due to the many changes that occur with aging to the systems of the body as well as the many comorbidities that can further impact these changes. It is critical that all rehabilitation professionals have an understanding of these common changes that occur with aging and these changes impact patient care. This course will discuss the joint mobility impairments, muscle performance impairments, changes in motor performance as well as postural dysfunction that commonly occurs in older adults. This course will not only discuss these changes but also highlight how rehabilitation professionals should assess and treat these patients based on these common impairments. Recommended outcome measures will also be discussed so that maximum patient outcomes can be achieved.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Home health care is the fastest growing industry in the United States based upon the projection period of 2014 to 2024. The demand and competition for licensed rehabilitation therapists to work in home health care is, and will be, great. Therapists currently working in or planning to work in home health agencies must have an understanding of the significance of process and outcomes measurement. The Outcome and Assessment Information Set (OASIS) is a specific assessment and outcomes measurement instrument that consists of 111 items or questions and measures patient data at various times during the patient’s stay in home care. Mandated by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, OASIS data must be collected on patients with Medicare and Medicaid at various times during a patient’s stay in home care. Therapists must be aware of the time sensitive and accuracy requirements related to documentation, OASIS updates, and the level of compliance and denials their agency experiences. Feedback related to documentation compliance and any denials will help therapists to refine and improve utilization of the tool for both improved patient outcomes and optimum reimbursement. The purpose of this course is to provide home healthcare physical and occupational therapists and speech language pathologists with the information they need to understand the significance and importance of effectively using the OASIS instrument in order to deliver comprehensive, compassionate, patient-focused, and cost-sensitive skilled services in the home environment. The home health therapist will be able to use the OASIS information provided in this course to create a basis for the plan of care, to measure the patient’s progress in meeting the established home healthcare goals, and to meet the regulatory requirements for quality reporting and reimbursement. By completing this course, therapists new to the home health setting will gain knowledge to begin working with the OASIS tool.

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.

The demographic changes of the United States have created an urgent need for more healthcare professionals educated in the care of older adults. The U.S. Census Bureau projects that by the year 2050, 89 million Americans will be 65 years of age or older. In fact, 20% of older adults will represent the U.S. population by 2030. According to the AOA, adults aged 65 and older will outnumber children 5 years of age and younger in the years to come. This rapidly aging population is challenging the health care system to come up with ways to meet the needs of older adults and set the stage for developing a healthier society.
This course is designed to assist healthcare professionals in encouraging, teaching, and guiding older adults to actively practice healthy lifestyles. This course allows professional registered nurses, along with all other healthcare professionals that work with older adults to gain additional knowledge in geriatrics and be able to provide satisfactory care to improve outcomes for older adults. Healthcare professionals will be able to recognize the needs of older adult clients and develop person-centered plans to support optimal living and promote healthy aging. Additionally, this course will set the stage for developing a healthier society for all to age well and successfully.
