Description:

Course Overview

Clinicians each develop their own “style” of patient care. Yet, even when two therapists seem to be implementing similar treatment approaches, often one seems to always see better outcomes with their patients. What “secret sauce” are they using to help patients reach higher potentials? Often it is not just the interventions employed, but the manner in which both therapists and patients approach rehabilitation. This is seen not only in treatment design, but also includes the way a therapist interacts with and empowers the patient. Participants will, by the end of this course, gain a knowledge and understanding of how to optimize rehabilitation outcomes in their patients by using current and evidence-based application of motor learning concepts and principles of neuroplasticity, including contemporary evidence for autonomy support and the effects of improving patient motivation and focus.

Learning Outcomes

  • Identify both motor learning and neuroplasticity.
  • Recognize how these processes work, including considerations for older adults.
  • Identify how to utilize appropriate levels of intensity, including cardiovascular demands, to maximize neuroplasticity.
  • Identify which practice regimens to use at each stage of learning, including use of dual task practice.
  • Identify 4 types of augmented feedback.
  • Identify strategies that utilize external focus of control, salience and enhanced expectancies.
