Description:

The Three Essential Components of Rehabilitation

No matter if the neurological impairment is caused by injury, disease or other causes, executive functions, attention, memory, and executive function are the most common problems. Neurological impairments decrease one’s ability to assimilate information needed for learning; they can isolate and/or limit social interactions; and they significantly decrease one’s overall quality of life. The entire spectrum of A person with neurological impairments may experience cognitive, physical, emotional and social impairments. Understanding the cognitive processes behind neurological impairments is important because patients have different etiologies, pathologies, and functional abilities.-Communication impairments are crucial. Effective intervention techniques can only be achieved by choosing the right assessment tools and thinking critically.

This dynamic program is full of case studies, interactive learning, and other great features. Jane YakelCCC, s.m.-SLP, the essence of Cognitive-Communication disorders are described and a neuroscience model is used to guide intervention. Relating this model to frequently used assessment measures/instruments, Jane You will receive innovative and convincing evidence-The three main domains of intervention and therapy are the basis for evidence-based therapies and interventions. of Cognitive communication: Attention, Memory, and Executive Function. The “neuroscience systems” models of Also, memory and its relationship to specific areas will be discussed of Cognitive breakdown. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to enhance your practice with intervention strategies that can be applied immediately to your current caseload.
