Online - 12 PDUs - Description: Occupational, physical, and speech therapists play a crucial role in helping people who have experienced brain damage (ex. stroke, head injury, cerebral palsy), spinal cord injury, birth defects, or neurological disease, regain function. The success of each case is dependent on the therapist's ability to fully understand the nervous system. This is the last in a series of four modules offered to "refresh" each clinician's understanding of the human nervous system. This module takes a closer look at the structure and function of the regions of the brain including the cranial nerves, brainstem, vestibular and visual systems, and the cerebrum. An entire chapter is dedicated to the clinical applications of the cerebrum. It is recommended that you read each module of the series in order, to achieve maximum benefit.
