Description |
In a recent study of pediatric physical therapists, 77% of therapists report using functional classification systems but only 42% report actually using them consistently for clinical decision making. Establishing the use of functional profiles through proper assessment of patients with neurodevelopmental disorders can greatly improve consistency of care, preciseness with longitudinal plans of care, and communication across the interdisciplinary team. With the rise of value based health care, therapists are now being challenged to define what they do and demonstrate consistent results in their care plans.
This one day, interactive workshop will teach participants how to use assessment techniques to assign functional classification profiles to children with cerebral palsy and integrate these profiles into treatment plans. This workshop will use interactive video case studies of children with neurodevelopmental disorders to develop effective plans of care that optimize progressive developmental potential across the lifespan of an individual with CP. Participants will be actively engaged in assessment and treatment strategies through hands-on interactive sessions that focus on applying techniques discussed to create measurable results in children. Upon returning to their practice setting participants will be able to immediately integrate the functional profiles into their plans of care and begin to teach others in their setting how to use them.
