Price:$59.99

Additional Information

According to the National Institute of Health, more than one-third (35.2%) of adults in the U.S., aged 65 and over report some level of dysfunction with ADL. Some of the resulting outcomes include poor sleep, malnutrition, social isolation, depression, pain, UTIs and falls. Since nearly one- third of all seniors live alone, that means that roughly 14 million seniors have no direct access to caregiver support. But living alone does not have to mean living lonely. Rehabilitation therapists have the unique charge of addressing ADL deficits with impactful, measurableinterventions to decrease the need for institutionalized care.

This timely podcast will help therapy professionals to learn evidence-based evaluation and treatment interventions to address this public health crisis. Attendees will learn fivestandardized ADL assessments and four methods for ADL retraining that demonstrate skill. The multi-disciplinary approach will provide valuable content for all therapists, without duplicating services, regardless of discipline. Mostimportantly, attendees will leave with a new-found confidence that they can empower older adults to age with dignity and autonomy.

Highlights

  • Review several practical ADL tests and measures, functional deficits, and underlying impairments based on DRGs you can use the next day
  • Immediately improve your patients' ADL performance with value-based interventions

Target Audience: Physical Therapists, Physical Therapist Assistants, Occupational Therapists, Occupational Therapy Assistants

the podcasts are not as easily accessible on this website and.or mobile version as the video courses. if you pause the podcast if you are not able to listen to it's entirety in one sitting, and.or have to take a break, the podcast restarts from the beginning and you have to scan to figure out which part of the podcast to resume. it is not as user friendly as the video instruction
