Functional Vestibulo-Ocular Skills in The School Setting

Occupational therapists are not always comfortable with evaluating and reporting on functional oculomotor skills. This course will provide necessary knowledge of how the vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) impacts functional ocular motor skills in the school setting. Confidently evaluating the VORhelps to ease report writing and treatment planning when addressing visual deficits. Use of videos, pictures and casestudies will help create a well-rounded understanding of theVOR and ocular motility. Occupational therapists will improve the way they gather and assess for visual information in this information-packed course.

Highlights

• Essential knowledge needed to confidently assess and report on functional visual abilities in the school setting
• Building foundational concepts to complete functional clinical observations of visual behavior

Target Audience: Occupational Therapists, Occupational Therapy Assistants
