Michel Janet (Shelly) Denes – Rehabilitation Strategies for Neuromuscular, Neurodegenerative Disorders

Description:

• The most recent clinical treatment guidelines for multiple sclerosis, transverse myelitis and Parkinson’s disease
• Assessment tools for Measure gait, fall risk and mobility
• Developing effective treatment plans based on individual patient’s disease progression
• Safeguarding both the patient and caregiver with best practice techniques

This course will teach you the most recent management strategies. for neuromuscular and neurodegenerative disorders. This program will provide you with the best up-to-date information.-To-Date clinical practice guidelines for the most common and complex neuromuscular conditions that you will encounter in the rehab setting including multiple sclerosis, transverse myelitis and Parkinson’s disease. We will discuss special strategies for patients with Alzheimer’s disease who are in need of rehabilitation management. The key to effective treatment planning is slowing down deterioration while preserving independence, mobility, and mobility. This program will give you the information you need to help your patients with Alzheimer’s disease.

You will leave this seminar with tools to…

• Increase safety gait and management of tone
• The best practices for Both patient and family education
• Assess for Caregiver stress: Know how to intervene
• Perfect documentation for For optimal reimbursement and compliance with Medicare changes

These strategies and interventions can be immediately applied to your practice and help improve functional outcomes. for Patients with neuromuscular disorders and neurodegenerative conditions.

OBJECTIVES

1. Identify key components for Evaluation and indications for Proper planning and treatment are essential. for patients with multiple sclerosis, transverse myelitis and Parkinson’s disease
2. Identify key components for Evaluation and development of programs for patients with Alzheimer’s disease and their caregivers
3. To effectively implement rehab programs that work, it is important to understand the physiological changes involved in movement disorders. for Individuals
4. The difference between the motor neuron changes of the upper and lower motor neurons that could be present in this population is shown in this chart
5. Create effective rehab techniques for Patients with movement disorders need to improve their motor control, posture, balance, and motor control.
6. Use balance strategy concepts or other advanced balance methods to perform assessment and program design tools
7. Implement effective treatments for Tone management based upon spasticity or muscle tone changes
