Treating the Critically Ill in the Acute Care and ICU

Price:$219.99

Additional Information

With an increasing number of patient discharges happening from acute care to home settings it is imperative for clinicians in the acute care field to provide the most up- to-date and impactful treatments possible. According to the Academy of Acute Care Physical Therapy, "83%" of therapy recommendations are met during the discharge process (2018). This indicates significant responsibility to rehab clinicians for providing the most beneficial information possible. Much of the groundwork of what a patient can achieve is implemented during the acute care phase of healthcare.

This interactive course will cover critical components associated with our compromised patients in the acute hospital setting. Participants will focus on understanding what is happening from a transdisciplinary perspective and how best to achieve functional outcomes. Hands-on experience will be achieved in both testing and treatment components during labs. Current research and techniques will be the focus of the day to put our best foot forward in acute patient care.

Highlights

  • The most effective evidence-based intervention approaches for acute care/ICU management that are applicable to use with medically complex clients
  • Practice dozens of testing measures and treatments that are the most appropriate for use in the acute care/ICU setting
  • Improve clinical decision-making from early mobilization to discharge and documentation
  • Multiple hands-on labs to allow clinicians to try evaluations and treatments throughout the day
  • Relevant information from current research on the impacts of therapy interventions and how we can improve the lives and mortality of our patients

Target Audience: Physical Therapists, Physical Therapist Assistants, Occupational Therapists, Occupational Therapy Assistants, Speech-Language Pathologists
