Description

You are faced with a growing caseload, diminished resources/reimbursement, and increasingly complex patients with the expectation of improving outcomes and reducing length of stay. On top of it all, when working with patients with brain lesions, the behavioral and cognitive challenges can be taxing.

Jerome Quellier, MS, CCC-SLP will bring decades of acute care experience to the table and arm you with an improved clinical eye to predict dysfunction and expedite the pathway to treatment.

Neuroanatomy is admittedly complex and overwhelming, but this course provides today’s cutting edge neuroscience – in plain English. You’ll tie what you learned (and may have forgotten) about neuroscience to a clear understanding of how you can work around the damage to optimize your patient outcomes!

  • A framework for understanding the recovery pathway for each type of lesion
  • Clinical implications for abrupt visual changes and an in-depth understanding of the difference between visual field cuts and neglect
  • Simple modifications to your interventions that will streamline your treatment time and patient outcomes

Best of all? We’ll explore what we can we learn from each other! OTs, PTs and SLPs all have powerful treatment tools up their sleeves. This training will emphasize the best practices from each that help to overcome specific patient deficits.

Feel confident with your next patient as you unlock the keys to working with behavior barriers and engagement. Watch me for a high-energy, dynamic program filled with interesting case studies, insightful discussions and interactive learning. You will finish this training with practical techniques that you can apply the next day!

  3. Analyze the connection between neurotransmitters and the communication system within the brain.
  4. Compare and contrast the left vs right hemispheres to better describe unique and complimentary functions as well as common lesion based changes to behavior.
  5. Inspect the neurophysiology of memory, the effect of fear/anger upon new learning, and assess neuro-behavioral barriers that impact memory formation.
  6. Analyze the effect of traumatic and non-traumatic injuries upon cognitive centers.
  7. Employ simple neuroanatomy-based techniques to rapidly de-escalate stress for patients and caretakers.
