Most people learned their anatomy, physiology, or pathophysiology. in School, where our primary focus was on passing the class. We memorized, studied, but quickly forgot.

Mary T. Johnson – The Brain in Detail

Description:

The Brain Revealed — The Structure and function components of the mechanical and endocrine systems as well as the electrical systems of your brain

Mental, Physical, and Emotional: Connections & Detachments — They work together to maintain homeostasis, but what does it look like when they go astray – and why?

Common Neurological Conditions: What Happens? and Why — Find out what is really going on during acute stroke, cerebral hemorrhage, seizures and aneurysms

Error Messages – What is the Brain You are trying to tell us — Discover the pathophysiologic mechanisms behind brain dysfunctions such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s, and depression

• Did you know that TIA may cause permanent brain damage
• Wondering what your neuro-checks reveal?
• You can also be intimidated by the care of patients with neurological disorders.

It doesn’t matter if you struggle to explain to your patients the risk factors for stroke or why they should be concerned about their heart health. You can also use a program to help you get back to basics.

Most people learned their anatomy, physiology, or pathophysiology. in School, where our primary focus was on passing the class. We memorized, studied, but quickly forgot.

Your brain learns differently now. Your brain is able to categorize your professional information based on years of experience. “file folders” Your clinical experiences will guide you. These concepts will be re-educated in your brain when you return to them. “folder” You can use this information the next time you meet a patient who has that problem. This means that you will be able to retain the information once you have an organized way of organizing it.

You will learn the basics of neurophysiology, neurological anatomy, and pathophysiology. This will enable you to identify and treat patient complications more quickly and more efficiently. You will also find:

• You’ll communicate with your doctors and colleagues more effectively
• You will feel more confident
• You’ll provide better and safer care

You don’t want to miss this exciting and applicable program to help improve outcomes and take your healthcare practice to the next level!

Error Messages – What is the Brain We Want to Hear Your Story

• Dementias
• Parkinson’s Disease
• Depression

OBJECTIVES

1. Define anatomy and physiology and explain how it manifests in You may experience physical symptoms.
2. Identify the neurologic assessment modalities. Make the connection between the brain’s workings and your visual assessment.
3. Categorize strategies and interventions for patients with traumatic head injury based upon the pathophysiological process.-These injuries have long-term consequences.
4. Discuss how chemical imbalances and impulses create disorders such as dementias and Parkinson’s disease.
5. Discuss the best way to educate patients based on the pathophysiology and most common neurological conditions.
6. Compare the different treatment options for spinal cord disorders.
