This course provides the therapist with an expanded understanding about the clinical and non-clinical factors which drive the recovery process following neurological injury of the brain. Therapists taking this course will be provided with the latest research and clinically relevant information in the areas of neural plasticity, motor learning, behavioral sciences and cognition. In addition, implications related to caregiver involvement and how self-practice and the home environment play a key role in the recovery process are addressed. This information is vital for therapists who wish to succeed in the rapidly changing health care and rehab environments where we continue to be driven to produce faster and better results for reduced reimbursement. Information provided in this course will encourage therapists to reconsider some current paradigms about the rehab and recovery process and apply updated principles in order to maximize patient functional outcomes.
