SUMMARY:Creativity in Counseling: Integrating Left & Right Brain Hemispheres - Online Event
DESCRIPTION:About this Event\n\n\nIntegrating creativity into psychotherapy brings an exciting and powerful dimension to the therapeutic relationship. It models the use of creativity in responding and coping with baffling and perplexing problems. \nDr. Berger will discuss right brain and left brain consciousness of the clinician during therapy. He will introduce a way of integrating clinical creativity into a session and demonstrate how it can positively influence the directionality and design of clinical interventions. \nDr. Berger will use a clinical vignette that demonstrates the introduction of a creative intervention into a session and its impact on the direction the session took with a woman who was verbally and physically abused as a child.

SUMMARY:Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) and Tapping: Evidence-Based\, Mind-Body Treatment Approach to the Anxiety Spectrum Disorders and Pain - Live Webinar
DESCRIPTION:The anxiety spectrum exemplifies the disorders where emotions override thought. Fragmented memories get stored in the body. The Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) collapse this uncomfortable emotional and physical reactivity\, freeing a path for spontaneous insights and clearer thinking. \nEmotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is a comprehensive mind-body treatment that desensitizes three areas: unwanted thoughts\, emotions\, and physical reactions. EFT combines physical interventions derived from restorative (self-applied) acupressure theory with cognitive interventions. \nEFT is an evidence-based practice with over 100 published studies. One published study demonstrated a 24% decrease in cortisol (stress hormone) level in the EFT group (Energypsych.org). EFT is an effective brief therapy and belongs in every therapist’s tool box. \nTransform your clinical excellence. Bring EFT into your practice and treat resistant problems that other methods failed. \nThis live webcast focuses on cutting-edge techniques of EFT to treat the anxiety spectrum disorders\, including: \n\nPhobias\nGeneralized Anxiety\nSocial Anxiety Disorder\nPanic\nOCD\nAcute Traumatic Stress Reactions\n\nThese mind-body methods are emerging into mainstream mental health\, trauma treatment\, coaching\, employee assistance programs\, and sport psychology arenas as a rapid\, effective\, non-invasive\, calming\, desensitizing tool. Do not miss this opportunity to learn evidence-based techniques you can use immediately with your clients and improve treatment outcomes.

SUMMARY:Exercise in Geriatric Rehabilitation - Live Webinar
DESCRIPTION:The latest practice analysis identifies over 53% of rehabilitation patients are over the age of 65 years. Many of these older adults have functional limitations due to the fact that older adults are generally less physically active than theiryounger counterparts or due to difficulties returning to normal function following illness or injury. Exercise is a non- pharmacological intervention that can have beneficial effects on multiple domains of function. However\, the application of exercise by health care professionals is often under-dosed leading to minimal changes in this patient population. Olderadults can pose unique challenges for clinicians due to their sedentary lifestyle and potential for complex medical history. \nRehabilitation professionals are experts in movementscience and should play an integral role in prescription of appropriate physical activity to ensure maximal levels of success with older adults\, so we need to do better for this new majority of patients. This course will provide you with a better understanding of primary aging processes that may affect an older adult’s functional status. An evidence-basedapproach for exercise prescription will be discussed to ensure that exercise science principles are used during plan of care development.

SUMMARY:Low Vision Identification\, Assessment\, & Treatment to Maximize Functional Skills - Live Webinar
DESCRIPTION:An estimated 285 million people are currently suffering from low-vision and visual impairment impacting their daily tasks world-wide (Zetterlund\, Lundqvist\, & Richter\, 2019). In the United States alone these deficits are costing over 16 billion in healthcare dollars which carries a significant burden for patients (Shah et al\, 2018). As rehabilitation professionals we have the unique opportunity to identify ways to maximize a patients’ function and reduce burden of care. This course will aim to better equip therapists in the understanding of low vision diagnoses and how to service this population in orderto maximize function safely. \nThis course will focus on the ability select appropriate functional evaluations for their discipline in order to modify and establish treatment plans for the low vision patient. Immediate-use resources will be identified for therapists toimplement next-day in clinic for treatment effectiveness. Participants to this course will be able to identify the common low vision diagnoses impacting patient function. Participants will leave understanding the link between balance and visionwill be defined with patient risk factors discussed fortherapists to better identify “at-risk” clientele and grow their practice.

SUMMARY:Positioning & Movement During Play - Live Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Play is a natural and essential part of our children’s lives that we want to support with active engagement and provide opportunities for learning. There are a variety of benefits to play\, but it is important to understand the different kinds of play and how we can expand upon it in our treatment of children. We need to understand our children\, by reading their cues\, and engaging in interactions to build their brains through play. We want to provide opportunities to increase the neural connections to improve their quality of movement. Our children are intrinsically motivated during play and explore their environments to help develop and strengthen their motor skills. Efficient movements of the body are impacted by the coordination of neuromuscular\, cardiopulmonary\, and sensory systems. Motor development impacts the ability of children to explore their environments\, but also has a crucial role in their cognitive\, emotional\, and social development. \nThis course will improve a therapist’s understanding of aclient’s neuromuscular and sensory-motor development tosupport optimal positioning and movement. Therapists will better understand the effectiveness of interventions to helpimprove learning\, success with everyday activities\, academic achievement\, and social interactions in a variety of environments. Strategies discussed will support body awareness\, strengthening\, and motor planning skills foreffective execution of movements during play with goal-directed activities. Attendees will review the importance for team collaboration to provide motivating\, but challenging\, movement activities to support the child in a variety of environments.

SUMMARY:Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) - Live Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Since stroke is one of the leading conditions seen by therapists and considering stroke is the leading cause of sensorimotor disability\, this is the strongest evidence-based approach to helping an individual regain motor functioning and skills. The effectiveness of this approach is well- established yet the formal structured use of this “vehicle” for stroke recovery is seldom used due to the barriers within the traditional rehabilitation model\, such as insurance reimbursement. Consequently\, this webinar will go over ways to implement this approach with adults and children through the modification of the traditional approach to CIMT. This workshop will give the participant another approach to add to their stroke toolbox so they can immediately implement this within the clinic or as a home program.

SUMMARY:Comprehensive Management of Falls in Older Adults - Live Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Falls among older adults remain one the most pressing issues for rehabilitation professionals. More than 95% of hip fractures are caused by falling and falls cost the healthcare system about $31 billion dollars annually. The good news is that falls are not a normal part of aging and that they are preventable. Additionally\, many of the risk factors associated with falling can be modified with the help of healthcare professionals. But clinicians have to understand the complexnature of falls and implement the most up to date interventions to effectively manage these patients. \nThis course will provide attendees a deeper understanding of the interplay between risk factors associated with falls. Additionally\, attendees will review and practice the most evidence-based examination and evaluative tools available to be able to develop the best individualized plan of care of their patient and document skilled justification for treatment. Finally\, the course content will outline the current best practices and interventions available to healthcare professionals in managing falls and aid in the prevention of future falls.

SUMMARY:Maintenance Therapy - Live Webinar
DESCRIPTION:A landmark decision by a federal judge in January 2013 changed significantly a therapist’s ability to meet the needs of his/her patient – that decision was on the Jimmo v. Sebelius Case\, which allowed skilled therapists and nurses to bill for “maintenance” care. Maintenance therapy differs from rehabilitation and most therapists were instructed in school to avoid the term “maintenance.” The purpose of this course is to help all PT/OT staff gain a thorough knowledge of the laws that govern maintenance therapy\, and the ramifications to your clinical practice. Furthermore\, this course will address key documentation principles that you’ll want to follow to prove medical necessity of maintenance therapy. \nAfter attending this course\, you will be ready to know ifyour patient needs maintenance therapy and how to demonstrate that conclusively by reviewing key case studies provided be Medicare.

SUMMARY:A Vision-Based Approach to Torticollis - Live Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Torticollis incidents continue to grow annually\, however\,treatments remain predominantly manual therapy based. Many infants with torticollis present without limitations in their active and/or passive neck motion leaving therapists questioning the best manual therapy approach to use. There are currently no studies on the impact of treating infants with torticollis with a vision-based approach. \nThis course will demonstrate how to assess infants with torticollis to determine the impact that their vision is playing on their head position. Participants will learn three different vision-based treatment approaches to use with torticollis patients for quick\, noticeable improvement in head position within one week of implementation.

SUMMARY:Gait Training in Neuro Rehab - Live Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Most individuals with neurologic dysfunction often present with impairments in gait and locomotor function that impede them from being independent with their activities of daily living. This concise 2-hour presentation will review the most important phases of the gait cycle and how to increase efficiency by making a priority problem list during the observational gait analysis. This in turn will help the clinicians with their clinical decision making with using interventionsbased on current evidence. \nClinical practice guidelines will be reviewed and discussed so that clinicians can make informed decisions of their application in clinical practice. Creative treatment ideas will be demonstrated through use of patient videos that can be used immediately in the clinic to help improve locomotor function in your clients.

SUMMARY:Neuroplasticity and Neurological Disorders
DESCRIPTION:This course provides a commonsense perspective of the immediate and long-lasting effects brain diseases have on the human brain. Presented are new resources\, research\, and ideas to leverage brain plasticity with the aim to reverse brain damage\, and promote recovery. Included will be a discussion of the tools\, and techniques therapists have to ameliorate pain\, and reduce or halt potential brain damage caused by Parkinson’s\, Alzheimer’s\, Acquired Brain Injury (incl. TBI and stroke)\, phantom limb pain\, spasticity and headache. These populations\, cumulatively\, represent over 10 million diagnoses per year- in the U.S. alone. \nParticipants of this one-day interactive course will haveglobal insight as to the profound plastic nature of the human brain\, and plasticity’s effect on both amplifying as well asameliorating these diseases and their sequelae. The brain iscommand and control of every one of the trillions of cells in the human body. Most clinicians have a little training that provides insight into this wondrous organ. The aim of this course is to equip clinicians with tools\, strategies\, and treatments to work in tandem with the patient’s brain to reduce pain and increase function. At the core of thesetreatment options is the melding of bleeding edge neuroscience with clinical practice.

SUMMARY:Evidenced-Based Evaluation and Treatment of the Cervical Spine - Live Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Neck pain is a common complaint among the general population and studies indicate that the overall incidence of neck pain is increasing worldwide. Clinicians need up to date\, evidenced based\, assessment and intervention tools to effectively treat this common condition. Evidence shows that a classification framework to identify which patients respond best to certain treatments results in superior outcomes when compared to a non-classification approach. Therapists can learn these newer models of classifying and treatment of the impairments associated with neck pain. \nThis workshop will outline the various classifications of patients who present with neck pain and identify which interventions are most effective for each stage of the condition. The assessment and reasoning skills gained from this course will allow the clinician to immediately apply evidenced based treatments to their practice setting and improve not only functional outcomes but patient satisfaction.

SUMMARY:Best Practice in Managing Patients with Dementia - Live Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Older adults with dementia are 9 times as likely to require a stay in a skilled nursing facility as their cognitively intact counterparts. Skilled rehabilitation (including physical therapy\,occupational therapy\, speech therapy\, and nursing) is an integral part of an older adult’s return to the optimal functional level of independence following an injury or illness. Patients with dementia pose unique challenges to rehabilitation professionals. Severe deficits in attention\, judgment\, memory\, communication\, and language are common in individuals with dementia. The progressive nature of dementia results inincreased dependence on caregivers as well as cost to the healthcare system with worldwide costs of $604 billion in 2010. \nIt is commonly thought that patients with dementia cannot benefit from rehabilitation services because of behaviors\, lack of communication\, or difficulties in learning. However\,current literature indicates IWDs can benefit fromrehabilitation as much as adults without dementia. With the proper knowledge and training\, rehabilitation clinicians areable to provide dementia-specific\, person-centered care\, which can maximize rehabilitation outcomes by maintaining oreven improving physical performance and function and thereby reduce healthcare costs. This course will provide you with best practice and evidence-based approaches to overcome these challenges to improve functional outcomes for these patients.
